Hi Tony.
It is a Belkin I have also. My wife's computer has the wireless card and
my computer is just plugged into the back of the Router. Can you tell me.
Do you use any Anti-Virus or Internet Security software on either of your
computers, other than AVG, and do you think that I should uninstall Sygate
from my wife's computer and leave AVG on it?
Best wishes.
Andy
