No, not wireless. There is a check supposedly to do on this (came from microsoft), and did what it says and comes out that everything is working (i.e. card, driver etc.) Started out on the Networks, Internet, Security forum so dont know how it ended up in here, but with having to refresh pages lots might have got me into the wrong one somehow and didnt notice

i am having problems keeping my connection to the internet. 2 weeks ago, my boyfriend called the router people (netgear) and had it configured to the factory settings. Ever since then i cannot stay connected to anywhere. He put me on the same port that he was on and i still can not stay connected. This is intermittent. Doesnt matter where I go, I will lose it at some point. There is 4 computers and a play station hooked into this router and I am the only one having a problem I play several poker sites and if i try to browse or go to my email, i will lose the connection to that site. Sometimes I lose my msn messenger and sometimes my yahoo messenger. If I am reading my email or doing surveys I have to refresh my page or hit submit several times before I can get to the next page. Most pages will just hang until I do this. This is when i will lose my messenger. Sometimes I cannot even get to some of my poker sites, saying I dont have internet connection, but if I try on the other sites I connect. We called the router people again, and they said it wasnt in the router, that it was in the proxy settings and to get ahold of compaq and they would give us new settings, but compaq said there was no proxy settings. We have dsl. Any suggestions????????
