    I dont really know the answer to your question, but i think it would help others if you used punctuation and sentences, and maybe spelled a bit better? For the speed issue could it be a port problem? For the disconecting problem could the router be dying?

    What kind of router do you have? Reason I'm asking is because I just tossed a router that was doing sorta the same thing. It was a linksys WRT45G v6. It didn't matter if it was wired or wireless, the network would drop at random times and if the network remained up the WAN connection would drop and weird stuff like that, even upgrading the firmware didn't fix it. Cisco should stay out of the home market imo.

    Has the router been rebooted?
    Have you tried Ethereal to diagnose the problem?
