Rubbish wireless performance

["White, Peter" <peter.white@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all, some advice please....

For some reason, the wireless performance of my Netgear DG834PN has gone
very bad over the past couple of days and I can't work out why.  As an
example, here's a ping:

Pinging 192.168.0.1 with 32 bytes of data:

Rubbish.  There's nothing new in Node 0, and the only neighbour within
50mtrs hasn't installed anything new either.  This level of performance is
constant (i.e. it's not just when the microwave or plasma is on), and
moving
the router to a different room hasn't helped.  All wireless clients are
acting the same, so it has to be at the router end of the connection. 
Wired
connections are fine.

Any ideas?  I've got a Linksys that I'm going to try later (had to come
into
the office today) which, presumably, if it's the same will prove there's an
external influence at work, but won't help much more than that.

Pete
