Loss of connection when using eDonkey2000

[Imperator]

Archived from groups: alt.internet.wireless (More info?)

I have just set up a wireless network in my house, it works fine until I use
eDonkey2000 the P2P software. After a short period of time the connection is
broken and I have to power off the router and turn it on again. I do not
have this problem when I'm not wireless.

Equipment:
NETGEAR WGT624 108Mbps Wireless Router
NETGEAR WG111T 108Mbps Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter
1Meg Cable Modem Connection
Using WEP Security

Does anyone have any ideas why the connection is being dropped? I would
greatly appreciate any suggestions

Thanks

There seems to be a lot of problems with Netgear wireles gear of all types -
Google Netgear wireless problem for examples.

However, the problems seem to stem not from the equipment itself, but from
their PSU's - the following link os fairly typical
http://forum1.netgear.com/support/viewtopic.php?t=1394

I would suggest testing with a good quality PSU of appropriate Volt and
Ampage and let us all know what happened. I have just ordered the same
setup and don't think I'll even bother trying the supplied PSU.

What gets me is the lack of concern from Netgear. Even when forum strings
like this appear to point out the answer, Netgear just seem to trot out the
old 'Reboot it and see if that cures the problem' rhetoric. It's what you
get for working to a budget I suppose!

Interesting, when I get a chance I'll give it a try. Thanks
