I would like to know how an external router can cause problems with XP?
Routers do not normally yhave drivers that need to be installed. The router
just goes in between the PCs and the DSL service.

Computer components will not malfunction because of a router. Sounds like a
different hardware issue. Maybe give your computer a quick spyware/virus scan
as well.
