I have to first vent and say how frustrated I am. I take pride in solving most issues within a few hours of research, but unfortunately I have not had such luck with this one. Listed below is my equipment and situation. Equipment: 1. Dell XPS M1330 Notebook Computer w/Intel 4965AGN Wireless Adapter and Vista Ultimate x86 2. Belkin N1 Vision Wireless Router Situation: Web browsing is extremely slow and in some cases times-out on visiting a lot of sites (but not all). Downloading files is no problem and my rate is great. It seems as if the problem is related to a Windows Update because everything was working fine, then one day just started happening. The problem does not exist when this notebook computer is hardwired or on other computers (non-Vista) that access this router. The problem also does not exist on some public wireless access points. There were a lot of updates that happened at the same time, so I have not started pulling them out one-by-one. I can't help but think someone else is experiencing this problem and may have found a solution. All drivers are updates and router has the latest firmware. I did the netsh autotuning disable when I first setup the computer (as it was a problem on a lot of Vista desktops that I have worked with). Thanks in advance for any help. Tom -- Mystic530xi |

Hi Tom
Just a shot here, I know a lot of people around here are seeing the same type of problem and not only with Vista. Since so many people are going wireless they seem to be picking up someone else's network first and the symptoms they are seeing is exactly the same as what you are explaining. After turning on your system check to make sure that only your router is on the network. -- Have A Great Day! Bill Meyer |

Thank you for the suggestion. I named my wireless network something absurd so I know I am connecting to the proper network. There are other wireless networks in range, but the signal is very weak. -- Mystic530xi |

Have you tried right-clicking on the Network connectionProperties unbind
TCP/IPv6? Some people say it helps. -- Mick Murphy - Qld - Australia "Mystic530xi" wrote: I have to first vent and say how frustrated I am.

I tried that, but I seem to completely lose my connectivity when I do that. Maybe I am doing it wrong, but I just remove the checkbox next to it. Thanks! -- Mystic530xi |

I spoke too soon. The downloads are going slow and sometimes failing (just on this computer, I have an XP Pro laptop and it downloads the same files quickly without fail). I was able to disable IP 6 and QoS without any improvement. -- Mystic530xi |

Update: I may have found a solution. On another forum, someone mentioned an interference problem between built in Bluetooth and my particular network adapter. I disabled the radio on the Bluetooth and all has been pretty good since. -- Mystic530xi |

Don't forget that other wireless devices, like cordless phones and baby
monitors, can use the same frequency of your wireless router and interfere. Sometimes you have to switch to another channel in the router. -- http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "Mystic530xi" wrote in message ... Update: I may have found a solution.

I had a similar problem. I discovered that there was a conflict with my USB
HUB. I removed this from my computer and my wireless internet works perfect. Hope this helps "Mystic530xi" wrote: I have to first vent and say how frustrated I am.
