Hi, i dont know too much about computers but this is the problem i've been having lately. I have a wireless router at home for my laptop. Whenever I have downloads on for long periods of time everything else dealing with the internet stops working. This happens even if i shut the download off. But if i have for example MSN or AIM running they will still work regardless of the download. I can chat with people. But i cant browse the internet.
I usually use BitComet or Limewire to download and I use the latest firefox and internet explorer 7 to browse. I'm not sure if my explanation made any sense but I was hoping someone can direct me to a solution. Thanks
