hi guys
Problem ive got is a friend recently set me up with an external hard drive for the wii so i can play my games.Problems is

1.When i turn on the hard drive attched to the wii i loose internet connection
2.When i restart the pc and connect to the internet ive lost almost 2 meg of broadband speed and also the internet connection is very unstable.

I have a thompson 780 router/modem and my isp is be broadband(24 meg).

Is the problem my router? Do i need to upgrade to a netgear for example

many thanks

andy

Sorry I don't have a clue then, was wondering whether your hdd was kicking your LAN adapter off, but obviously it's not the case :s
