Hi,
I have been having problems with my wireless internet for awhile. My ISP is videotron (I live in Montreal, Quebec), and we get 30Mbps internet, so the internet speed itself is great, I have 0 issues using a wired connection, it is nice and consistant.
The issue is the wireless speed. It fluctuates so much, sometimes it is unusable. It fluctuates very quickly, 1 second it is at max speed, the next, its extremely low (I assume below 1mbps). To give you an idea, here is the graph of my download speed from speedtest.net: http://puu.sh/7c6CF.png
As you can see from the picture above, during these low download speed moments, it is as if my internet is on "hold". This is very evident when playing games.
My question is: How would I go about fixing this issue? Are them some settings in the router that might help? (I have a linksys router model "WRT160N").
Any suggestions would be much appreciated
(Except if you tell me to just use a wired connection)
Thank you!
