    I just got new speakers and my wireless keeps dropping off and its all messed up now I cant even connect. I have to connect via ethernet. Could the speakers be interfering with the wireless signals or something?

    It is unlikely but stanger things have happened. Anything else change ? New software ? Firewall ? Cordless phones ? Are these speakers wirelss and working on Bluetooth ? Is your wirelss network 802.11g ?

    If you unplug the speakers does the wireless work ? If could be the metal sheilding on the speakers is interfering with the signal. Or if they are bluetooth this operated on the same frequency as 802.11b.g.

    Try unplugging them and then moving them. If that works - maybe try placing you wireless router somewhere else.
