Im on BTinternet at the moment and use a belkin wireless card and a voyager 2091 router.

Everything was fine until i swapped my mobo, cpu and memory.

Now i get frequent drop outs in the connection and i have to reboot to regaain internet access.

Im using exactly the same router and card as before.

Any ideas?

If it is just the wireless signal that is sropping out and not the broadband signal on the router then first thing I would suggest is check for updated drivers for the wireless card and unistall/reinstall the drivers

Its a fresh windows install with latest deivers. Signal strength is excellent throughout.

Do you have other wireless networks that you are able to pickup when you scan for wireless networks ? if so it might be that one of those networks is interfering and you need to change the channel your network is using. Tyr changing the channel to something else but steer clear of 6 and 11.

Alos do check if the broadband connection on the router is dropping at all as well

Try stopping the wireless zero configuration service once you are connected, some users have an issue every minute or so where it gives short bursts of packetloss.
