Thread: Router Question Need Help!

  1. #1
    My friend has two computers hooked up trhough a wireless router. Uses a cable Modem. They are about 45 feet away from eacotgher. Every now and then the connection doesnt work and it goes low. He has the same as me and I do not have this problem so it cant be comcast or anything. Could somethinjg be blocking the connection or what?

    Check if 802.11 validation is turned on. If it is on (default) try turning it off. I had exactly the same issue earlier this week, and turning that off solved the problem.
