Hey everyone

i myself don't like wireless. i have a couple of friends that are wireless and they lose connection like you do also. i have a router and my connection is great..

it isn't your connection but the host's connection.it all depends on the connection because he is the owner of the server.so your going onto his connection.it's not your fault for getting 1 bar.samenthing if you lad.
