Including the hard wired ones?

i've seen it before where a router was configured as wpa1 or 2, and clients connected to it via wpa1 with no issues. When a client with wpa2 joins, then the others are disconnected as the router chooses the higher encryption.

Hi smirnof , have u tried the elimination process , put them 1 in @ a time , ie try the usb wireless without the rest apart from the obvious hard wire modem to router , if it works , u know then its not a product fault, then connect each pc/lappy/xbox/dreambox, there might b to much also for the router to handle also
hope u get it sorted biffo

that actually makes sense jimbo make sure all the network sources are on the same encryption :driver: ill remember that when i manage to get my lappys sorted lol

l have 3 usb wireless plugins and 2 just about work in the spare pc but work fine in anything else and its close to the router aswell and the signals crap ?

must be the way the pc it setup in config in windows , have network magic on all the pc's and theres not a problem with the settings it says ...

strange if its playing up and stopping the router working right ?

smirn i know you dont ask for help for anything as your so clever lol maybe you just have maxed your router out do you really think 1 router can handle your stuff ? just a suggestion split your cable and buy another router i have a spare router

if you like can post a router for free but you must sort the password for it as i failed lol
