    Hey

    Just want to say that I LOVE the new XR-5. :D The speed on Vista 64 is great and XP is just amazing with oblivion (came with Dual Boot config). But I seem to be having an odd problem.

    I just bought a new Linksys Wireless N Router Model No. WRT150N and I have connected to the internet but it is incredible SLOW. I really didn't have that much time to fidle around with it since I had to wake up at 0430 and it was already midnight. :eek: Is there anyway to increase the speed? I have looked at other forums and they say that you get rid of the virus protection but I don't understand how that would slow things down on this high powered beast! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have the same problem with my linksys 54g wireless router. As soon as I get the cash, I'm buying a new router. As far as I know, it can't be fixed in my model.
