My Internet Drops & Loss Of Home Network In Vista

loss of Internet Connection in Vista; completely loosing my Home Network; random

Internet Lags and Drops; and it seemed the only solution was to Reboot my

Computer to get an Active Internet connection. I applied many of the

Hotfixes; and used all of the Suggestions but nothing seemed to work. The

one thing that did seem to make sense though was the Tech advice here and

their that would say it was a Hardware Issue with Routers, etc.


So this is what I did; I went out and Bought the D-Link DIR-655 which is

Certified to work with Vista. It arrived last week; hooked it up and since

then I have not had 1 Internet Drop; or have I lost my Home Network. Now my

Computer can stay on; go to sleep; and when it wakes I have an immediate

Internet Connection. On the Upside the speeds are much faster as well

instead of your basic 100mbps; im getting 300mbps. So it was well worth the

Upgrade to me. It actually made sense that to take advantage of some of the

new options with Vista Networking that you would need a New Certified Vista

Router. Im actually very glad I did it; no more headaches and reboots. Hope

this helps anyone who was going thru the same Issues I was.


Oh and by the way just so you know here is what I have going on with my

Network: My New PC; 2 Mac Books; 1 older PC; 1 Xbox; 1 PS3; and 1 Wii; and

the VOIP.


I also used to use the Hawking Booster on my Network to help with VOIP lag

and arranging packets; but I also elminate that now because this new Router

arranges the packets and no Lag on the VOIP.
