Hey all,
Just wondering if anybody has any ideas here. I installed the D-Link DIR-655 Extreme N router on my home network approximately 2 months ago. I have 3 computers connected to it most of the time. Two desktop PC's hardwired to the gigabit ethernet ports, and one laptop (Dell 1520 with N card) connecting wirelessly. I also have a WD 1TB My Book World Edition connected to a gigabit port.
Until about a week ago, network performance was great. Since then however, it has been terrible. Ripping a movie to the World Edition used to work flawlessly. Now about 5 times per DVD it will pause for a couple of minutes, and the video preview is just a black screen. Loading simple web pages use to be almost instant, now it can take 5-10 seconds, on all 3 computers.
I have turned off the WD drive to see if it had anything to do with it, but there is no change.
Does anybody have any idea what could be causing this, or what I could do to restore my network performance to its previous glory?
Thanks!
Doug
