Internet Priority

The story is, my brother is always on the Xbox AND his laptop, and they both run smoothly while he's doing about 400 different things. If I go on my laptop and try to do something at the same time as him, my internet disconnects every 5 minutes and it's all generally very slow.

We have the same laptop, or rather he copied mine, and he doesn't take care of it in the ways of he drops it etc, and he doesn't update his programs.

Is there a way for me to make my laptop the priority for my router? It seems to be a hierarchy of Xbox 360 < Brother's Laptop < Main Home Computer < My Laptop.

Oh and the main computer is terrible too, and it's where the router is based. About 150GB etc.

It's wireless, and I'd give it a try but I cant be bothered fishing one out :P. I'll go find one if any other solutions don't turn up.

I do. So there aren't any solutions?

He was actually talking to DS, who questioned if you were his brother.

What OS do you use?
 
Re: Internet Priority

Router settings? Beyond that I can't see a solution.

Vista basic on the main, and vista premium on our laptops.
