The problem that I have is that at various times my adsl connection will just delay (lag) before doing something. Examples of this is a delay before accessing a website and in cs (counter-strike), delayed movedments. The setup of my connection is: my nic, to my router (smc 7004abr model), to my modem (westell wirespeed). My theory is that the router is at the root of the problem, but I am not sure. This problem is temporarily fixed by rebooting the router, modem, and pc. (I have tried just rebooting the modem, but the does not fix the problem.) Please help! Thanks in advance.

I't s more likely that some activity on your PC is consuming resources or Internet bandwidth at that time. You need to scan for viruses using updated definitions and also scan for parasitic spyware:

It's not your router; I have the same router and I don't have those problems. Do you have the latest firmware for the router? I think BpB is on the right track.
