I recently switched to DSL from dial up (no cable available here). I am running a Lynksis wireless router with a pc attached by ethernet to the router and a wireless notebook. I don't seem to have any trouble with the service other than when I try to download large files. I have only tried to download the Windows updates and Live updates from Symantic. The problem seems to be with either computer. My pc is running Win 2k and my laptop XP. The laptop is a brand new Toshiba P4 2.8G 512K ram. The pc is a couple years old. The download will freeze up in the middle of a download and the only way to clear it is by opening the Task Manager and hitting End Task. I ended up downloading the updates one at a time, but some of the larger ones (15 to 23 MB) I couldn't get to download. Is this a function of Norton Internet Security, which I have on both machines or is it a function of my router or my DSL modem? Any ideas?
