Newbe to wireless...
I have a notepad running Win xP home edition fully upgraded.
the wireless network card connects to and reads the router, but no
router connection to the inrernet.
Configuration is: DSL modem into a linksys 4-port router (this feeds
3 hardwired computers on my home network which all run and connect
perfectly and the 4th hardwire connects to my DI-514 wireless for the
notepad.
* If the DI-514 is connected directly into the DSL modem there is a
good wireless internet connection.
The reason went back to hardwiring the other 3 computers through the
Linksys router is that the wireless drops my connection too often,
doing it this way if it drops, it only affects my notepad.
What am I missing here?

A good choice for a wireless g router?
By TJ4, 5 days ago:

Though I'm personally no expert and new to wireless, also, I have gotten the opinion of an IT professional, who networks a large work community, various ways. LinkSys and NetGear equipment are top of his list. I know LinkSys is a subsidiary of Cisco. How much more network expertise can you get than that?! Anyway, these two names come up a lot on the web of people who are most happy with their equipment, also. (It's hard to nail these things, sometimes, because there are always people who hate any brand.) Hope this helps, realizing knowing, with your 360, you may have need of some real juice, which I can’t offer any detailed knowledge of. But I was thinking, if Cisco can't do it right, who can?
