So my wife and I are living in her grandparent's basement apartment while I am in school and the internet is having some severe problems the last couple of days. First of all, the internet is REALLY slow. Like <1mbps. We have had problems with the router needing to be reset probably every couple of days or so, but I have been able to deal with that. It usually takes a while and I am limited in what I can do, but the last couple of days it has been randomly quitting. The router does not need to be reset, but I get the ! on the wifi for a few seconds (never happened before a couple days ago. It will usually connect again, and I just restart the browser. Ten minutes later, it does it again. I question whether it is even the router though because I installed Logic Pro a couple days ago and my computer has been running a little sluggish since. But my PS3 also will randomly stop loading a movie or something. Not particularly new though... Anyone have any suggestions? I have my last final tomorrow and am having some real trouble completing an assignment online when I have to log in every ten minutes. On a really slow connection.

Edit: I have tried to post this 3 times and the website won't work. I didn't restart the browser, but opened a new tab and tried it. The MR page would open, but the forum page wouldn't. This worked the 3rd time.
