I have 2 problems I was hoping Some of you computer Savvy People Could Help Out :)

Ok My first Problem, I bought a Logitech 350 Premium Headset. I payed 45 dollars I believe for it.
Now Ill Post A link Below To my Microphone. The Prob. Is that it has a weird ass USB on the end.
I could just use some help to recognize it. I've Been Given Links to here look at this (and getting a wikipedia page of usbs) I just want I answer of what this is.

Ok Now the Major Problem is..I have a Belkin_N1 Wireless router which I purchase For 130$ Split The Cost with family Members. Now on this router I have No Trouble Surfing the Web or Listening to music, but when i want to try and Play Source Or Xbox i start having problems. I will play for an average of 15 minutes and i will "timeout". Now i have called my ISP which is shit but provide decent service and they said my Modem has been up for 70 days without a pingout. So I believe it's a router Problem. Now to play again I hafta walk across the house unplugg the router to reset it and play for maybe 5 mins max and do it again. Yesterday i counted i reset my router 115 times in the 5 and a half hours i played. I'm Just Lost as what to do. All of the sorfware is updated and im just at a loss. I can provide more info if needed i jsut nned some help HERE ARE SOME LINKS :)

Thanks Mosseh :)

Fix the mic pic please

have you set dedicated clientports on your router for your steam and xbox lines?

idk what xbox has to be set to but the default for css is 27005.
check your router and see what it's set to.

I will look into that Prom Thanks.

Port 27015 is usually only the server's listening port -- you are most likely then transferred to another server port for gameplay -- and if you don't have a static client port it will make little difference because you'll be hopping all over with each instance of counter strike.

Next time you timeout run these commands from your computer and post the results:

Traceroute to gameserver:
tracert 66.135.40.174

Ports (probably won't tell much):
netstat -abn > ns.txt
ns.txt (should open a notepad -- copy that info)

Also, when you say all software, does that include router firmware?

Oh yeah, and JFOBP was right, the link to your headphone pictures is broken.

Ok All Firmware its updated as well.

With those commands Where Would i enter those?

Ive Attemtped To Fix the Link Aswell.
Lemme know?

A windows console / terminal:

Start->run->type cmd->press enter

You should get a box saying something like:


you can enter those commands in that box -- to copy right click in the box, click mark, highlight the text (its not like word, it draws a huge rectangle, you'll see) and right click in the white rectangle to copy -- paste that stuff in here.


EDIT: In terms of your USB connector - it looks like a standard USB type A male connector. It might be the angle but it looks like the top part of the connector has come loose and slid forward. This is what its supposed to look like (the left):
.

The part on the bottom (the black part) here...

... looks like it needs to be pushed back into the housing. I've never seen that happen before. Is that the way it looks in real life?

Yea Thats How it Looks.
Big black Bar in the front with 4 holes.
Now On my pc i have a usb port with just 4 prongs on it. The usb fits. Ill work on getting pics of that.

EDIT: I tried To Push The Black Part Back and its not budging.

Maybe try pulling it out (at your own risk) -- theres no way it'll fit into the socket with that black part where it is.

Also, regarding the ports - been thinking about it and Prom might be right - if your router randomly closes or blocks traffic on ports when it shouldn't you could have those issues, and the ping / tracert wouldn't show that.

Steam says:

... but if your router was functioning right you really shouldn't need to do that.

Go here:

... scroll down and follow the directions for your router to open the ports

Ok Thanks Menta I worked on it Did As Told And Time Will Tell.
Also i will post pics of that usb Port on my pc. (I wont try pulling that shit out onl ybecause if that port thing fixes the issue i wont need it LOL.)
