I would highly recommend any Linksys router. (This is a Cisco product and they're the leading manufacturer of routers for both home and business use.) I had used Belkin before and nothing by problems.

As the other poster noted, have your work computer plugged directly into the router; others can go wireless.

Both rebooting your system at least once every day or two, and defragging your hard drive about once a month will pay dividends in terms of system performance.

Scandisk has nothing to do with this. Jeez!

Then plug the headset in. Give it some time to find the headset. If this doesn't work, try checking the Device Manager. In XP it's Start, Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager. Scroll down to Universal Serial Bus controllers. Click on the plus sign and see if anything is "crossed out" in that list. First try to right click and check the Properties. If it is not working proerly try the Troubleshoot button. Click on the Driver tab and update the driver. If neither of these work, go back to the Device Manager, right click on the USB port in question and Scan for Hardware changes. If none of these work , uninstall the driver. Remove the headset from the USB port and then plug it back in and see if the computer can now find it and install the driver.

If you're plugging the headset in and unplugging it without removing without the "safely remove hardware" icon in the lower right hand corner of your screen, you are disabling the USB port until the computer is restarted again. Always use the hardware removal tool!
