My desktop is connected to my modem/router wirelessly, and for some reason my spped is crap. I time out while playing games, and web pages are loading slowly. I dont have this problem with any of the other 4 computers that use this connection (and yes, i still time out when theyre not connected.) When I view lan devices on the modem, my desktop is showing as "inactive" so I would say it had something to do with my connection to the router. I have a Westell 327w (Model: D90-327W14-06) Any ideas?

Are you using a wireless dongle?
Is there anything that could cause interference near by. Like an electrical appliance or similar?
How far away from your router are you?
Are you in direct line of sight?
Whats your signal strength?

There are other computers using the wireless, and they have no problems. (i tested this with and without the others connected and it still showed the same) I have a PCI wireless adapter, Im directly above the router (my laptop sitting right next to this computer works just fine) and my signal strength is around 80%
