Unhappy adsl or adsl router

I have 3 computers running on wireless and my problem is it takes around 2 minutes to open web pages. this problem is not constant. Some times it is o/k.
I am running winxp sp2, 2.8ghz proseccor/2gb ddr2 ram 80gb sata harddrive

The main computer has a adsl router and i was wondering if a adsl modem would be a better option.
The Router is D-Link dsl 502T and the modem is D-Link dsl 302G,could you please advise me .Any help to solve this problem would be greatfully appreciated.Thank you in advance

Default Re: adsl or adsl router

Well, it could be that you just need a new modem/router. Depending on the model, things start to get faulty as they get older. I dont know how long you've had those things for, but i can tell you that my D-Link router got pretty destroyed after 2 years of usage. It just kept wasting alot of bandwidth and packets were getting dropped constantly. So your hardware could be the problem. Also, maybe its just that you dont have that good of a connection to be supporting 3 wireless computers whenever you need them. And thats why it may be good sometimes, and sometimes bad. Check in with your ISP and see what they say about your bandwidth specs.
