Wireless woes – help please

I've whinged about my home wireless connection before, but it's not getting any better.

Sometimes I can get online without a problem. Usually, however, I have to unplug the wireless router (a Belkin that's around four years old) before I can access any websites and increasingly it kicks me out after a few minutes.

At one point this morning, the only thing I could access was my work email through Windows Exchange Server. I find this most odd.

Could it be that the router needs replacing? Does anyone have any ideas about what's wrong or what I can do to fix the issue?

I've been told by a couple of people to ditch the Belkin and replace it with Netgear or LinkSys, but I don't even know if the problem lies with the router!

All serious suggestions gratefully received.

It's simple. Ditch all of your third-arty gear and replace it with shiny new white plastic items with a little apple on. It "just works" - Steve says so.

Yeah, well that might annoy a client or three...

Seriously, I am rather taken by the Apple TV and I like the idea of the interconnectivity. If I ever get round to buying a telly, that might be the moment when I become an Apple evangelist.

You back from St Petersburg, then? Time for a catch-up before you head for Moscock?
