I have cable internet with a Linksys 2.4 GHz 802.11g wireless broadband router. My computer is wired to the router. When I enable wireless (mixed, WPA, TKIP) and my girlfriend connects with her laptop it will disrupt my internet. This results in a complete disruption in any applications using the internet at the time.
Is there something I need to do to make it so her laptop can connect without disrupting the internet?
Thanks
