I have a linksys box by my comp on the first floor. i have my 360 in my basement with a wireless adaptor($100) so i have a wireless internet connection we have 2 desktops and 1 laptop. when i play halo 3 and cod4 it lags all the time. sometimes it is perfictly fine and other times its terrible.

i have no idea what is happening ive tried many thing but none have worked. Someone PLEASE give me any tips you have!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

you if you equipment doesn't use different speeds.

Don't try to combine B and G channels, just set everything to G fixed.

When B and G are mixed.. often you get the speed of your slowest connection, B in that case.

Also, see if your router can scan all channels...

Most often the manufacturer set's the WIFI router to channel six and quite a lot of people don't change this...

I noticed that in my surrounding channel 10 is hardly used,

changing from channel 6 to channel 10 helped a lot to get faster connections, for you this might be a different channel.

What you can do to 'measure' the quality i get some software that measures this on your laptop... then put it in the basement and test the channels for quality of reception y changing the channels on your WIFI router then one with the highest number as measured by your laptop is the one you can use.

cheers

Answer 2

mabye someone else is using you wi-fi

type your ip address in your browser (internet explorer or firefox which ever you use) and go to wireless properties   and set a WEP key  

thats a password you have to put in the first time you connect to your wireless adaptor

if you already have that use this  http://lifehacker.com/344765/turn-your-6...
