    This hasn't happened to me, are you using the Intel 5100 wireless card?

    e:
    Oh nevermind, I didn't see you had an X6.

    What kind of BSOD error are you getting? Can you try changing it while it's not connected to the router? What about if it was disabled?

    When its just in G-mode, it works fine. But in N, it just BSODs randomly. Sometimes it takes 6 hours, sometimes 12, sometimes 2, etc. just random

    and yeah Intel 5100
