Dont know if anyone can help got just a standard sky router but have 3 laptops connected to it an i phone an i pad and 2 x boxes all wireless and it keeps droping signal and become lagey on the game consoles .will a better router cure this is it because too many things are connected too it ive seen gamers routers with areials on them .Can anyone recomend a good router dont realy understand them thanks taff .

whats your Speed ? as if your using all items at the same time a 2>10mb connection will get very laggy

but all so if u get it more when your on xbox/ps3 your better of hardwiring to the router directly u will find your Ping and speed will be far better

just done a speed test 4.8 mb is that bad .

I am on Sky with 14.6 mb download speed so 4.8 dose not look good.

Hi Taff, have a look at http://www.samknows.co.uk and it will tell you whats available at your address and what speeds you can expect. If you copy up what it says a few of us on here may be able to advise.. That is a poor throughput with that many machines wanting access.. when gaming its the latency that causes the issue and dsl does suffer from bad latency at times.. (still need good throughput though..)
