I've reconnected to it, Scanned my PC for virus' (Found nothing) restarted PC etc..

If it's wireless move your computer closer to your router.
When i bought a new game that required 550MB of RAM i updated my RAM and my internet went ALOT faster than it was going, so maybe buy some RAM. you can get 512MB for like £35.00.

When I used the WiFi on my PSP there was about 3 or 4 wireless ports I could use, but they were like 45% connection all the time.

If it is wireless, Move the thing round on the back. The like stick thing ( Can't think of name ). Thats what i do, Try and get better signal. Good Luck in getting it back and hope it goes well ;].

No one can use my wireless connection mine has an automatic key on it I can't take it off, my old one didn't though :p and only one other connection comes up for me occasionally but it is slow so I stick with my homehub, anyway Soph err ring your service provider and Matt you sure hes not on about the Ariel, cus not all routers need to use a USB socket, cus mine don't, only needs to be connected to a phone line and power socket.

I have had wireless problems recently, what with it going slower. But when my wireless gets too slow connect to my next door neigbours router, the gap between my room, and the room in my neighbours house with the router is only a few metres. Oh the joys of wireless internet.
