Ever since I added a WAP to my existing router I'm losing connection, help!
I have my PS2 and one desktop connected via Cat5 to my Linksys BSFR41 router. I added a Linksys WAP several weeks ago and whenever someone starts using the wireless network, I lose connection on my desktop? Can anyone clue me in?
