Ehh can you be more specific about the connection between your dads pc and yours?
I mean how is your internet connection separated between your pc's?

With every computer you're just overloading it.
You need a higher connection speed.
(We're using 2 computers and 1 laptop and sharing a 20mb speed)

That is not speed problem. Some routers have this problem:
If a new device (computer, phone, etc) starts connecting through the router, connection on the first device dissappears for 2-120 seconds.
If you play on battle.net, you automatically get screwed :D | If you play on garena and you are host, tunnel everyone as soon as connection reappears. Then you'll continue playing as normal. | If you play on garena and you are not host, if the host is smart enough to tunnel-ping-tunnel you, you might continue playing.

Connections can be different. There's a lot of factors that affect these things.

I'd think multiple devices were being assigned the same IP Address. I'd either manually assign IP's to all the devices or Manually assign one to your computer, and then configure the router to take your IP out of the pool of available ones to lease out.

Well, all of our computers are connected to my private connection, it only disconnects when I turn on any of the 2 VAIOs, the Toshiba is fine...

And no, they have different IP's for each one..

and I've even set up a static IP for each VAIO...still no luck..

Any other suggestions? Thanks
