Hi,
at my home I have a PC that's got a cable connection to my router and I also use a laptop that is connected through WIFI.
I used to be able to access files of the PC from my laptop and vice versa easily, play mp3 files, or watch clips, etc.
Since about a week or so all of a sudden this is not working flawlessly (or at all) anymore. It is very sloe to connect to the PC form my laptop to open and view folders, let alone to open files. Sometimes it won't even connect at all.
I tried resetting the router (switched it off and took it off the power for 30 sec), but it did not do anything.
If this helps, my router is a Netgear model WNDR3700
Does anybody have a suggestion what could be causing my problem and how to solve it?
EDIT: I just tried something, I switched off the Wifi on my laptop and hooked it up to my router with a LAN cable, all of a sudden all is fine. So this to me seems to be an issue with the WIFI / WLAN.
any ideas?
thanks,
Lars
