Symptoms of a problem?

My home network consists of a Linksys WRT54G wireless router and a USB
WUSB11 USB network adapter (it's a "B" ). It has been running great for more
than a year. Recently I have had issues with the pc that the USB adapter is
connected to in that it has been spontaneously rebooting. I have replaced
memory, tried different hard drives, etc. but the problem persists.
Coincidentally my this pc now takes several minutes to establish a network
connection whereas I don't believe it used to. Also transfer speeds seem to
be slower.
Would a problem with the network adapter cause the rebooting?
Thanks for any opinions.
Gary

better check if your computer stops rebooting when the usb network
adaptor is not connected before running bananas in wild speculations.

Use a differnt connection manager, the one that comes with windows really
sucks.
I had problems with 2 different routers ( they would always reboobting). I
did everthing, tried all the firmware that is aviable. Nothing helped. Then
I just changed the connection manager and have yet to experience a reboot.
hope that helps

Check if Linksys has one - should be on thier site.
My laptop has an intel pro 2200 BG biult in wireless card, and i found a
manager on thier site.
So thats the one i use.
