Here's the deal, my wireless inter net dropps on a frequent bases and over all is slow. I have my laptop connected via hard wire and is working, I think it is a bad router, but I had my ISP do a line check and they think it is my modem, which I still have to pay to replace, so I want to be sure I replace the right component.

What kind of components do you have? Cisco, Linksys, D-link? Typical config would be a cable from the wall to a modem then a cable to the wireless router. Is this correct for your setup? Is your laptop wired into the modem or the router? If you're wired into the router and the Intarwebz work fine but you're having intermittent outages over the wi-fi, then it's definitely the router, not the modem. If, however, you were experiencing "flapping" (up and down network connectivity) both wired and wirelessly, try connecting directly to the modem. Symptoms persist: modem. Otherwise, router. Hope this helps.
Cheers!!
