Internet connection error... Help...

May I ask what is the error encircled with red in the attached picture all about.

Those are transmission errors, whereby the checksum or error correcting code of a transmission failed (packet was damaged) and thus the data had to be discarded and another copy requested (or waited for). 264 aint bad in over 200 MB of data at 7.6 Mbps, especially if the cables your service comes through are copper.

If you are using a wirless connection, attempt to change the channel the service uses or move the transmitter closer to your device. Ultimatly errors are impossible to stop, although they can be made near improbible.

Thanks for the help anyway...

One last question, how will I do this? attempt to change the channel the service uses

 

[Dr Super Good]

Some wirless sources allow you to change it in their driver software (eg routers).

They usually default to channel 1 and so might be suffering from a lot of interfearence from other people using channel 1 for their own wirless sources as well.
Additionally if there is a lot of traffic (multiple people using the wireless at the same time) their communications may interfear with eachother and thus cause some packets to be lost (the famous buss network problem).

If it is the first problem, a channel change would fix it right up.
If the second, then you will need to increase the bandwith of your wirless to compensate for lost packets and reduce the likelyhood of packets being lost. Modern wirless can reach speeds of >260 Mbps with the right hardware.

Ok thanks a lot!


Because I use a USB-based(plugged in a USB port) wireless broadband device...
