Hi Andy,
One would never rule it out completely, but I'd say the
chances of it being router related are pretty remote, aside
from the possibility that it might be an open/close port
issue.
I'd be inclined to look at how you are reformatting, and
whether or not and when you apply all the updates, etc..
George.

Subject: [access-uk] Internet Security and Routers
Hi all.
At Christmas, I bought my wife a wireless router to enable
her to go on the internet with her computer, which is
located upstairs. She got a wireless card installed. The
router is downstairs and my computer is attached at that
point. Since getting this router I have had nothing but
problems and had to re-format several times. I've also had
problems getting rid of Norton, which came with my computer.
I re-formatted on Sunday and this time, rather than try to
get rid of Norton and use Sygate and AVG, I decided to just
let Norton do it's stuff. Unfortunately, when I did a live
update, my computer seemed to crash or stall. I decided to
attempt to turn Norton off and managed this, in terms of
Internet Security and Anti Virus. I then installed Sygate
and AVG and my old problems started again. So, eventually,
to my question. Is having a router perhaps causing my
problems. I mean, is there any implications when using
Sygate, AVG or Norton, when you are attached via a Router.
I've really had it with this computer and fancy just
visiting PC World to get into dept again, but if the
problems I am having are associated to my Router, then a new
computer would not resolve anything. Any advise or ideas
would be very welcomed.
Best wishes.
Andy
