Default Does the speed of a modem router affect the speed of my

broadband connection? My Belkin modem router boasts upto 54 mbps - but I've noticed my connection is much slower when on wireless rather than an older speed touch modem supplied by my isp (wanadoo/orange).Should I look for a newer wireless modem or can I tweak things?

As you've not got 54Mb/s broadband then the reduced speed is not down to your wireless connection. Do you clear out your spyware regularly, that is a more likely cause of a slow connection.

You might want to check if anyone else is using your network, neighbours for example. Put a password on the connection.

Secondly the signal between your computer and router may be poor, how far away from it are you and what does the connection strength say?
