How far away are you from the router when this happens?

anywhere
it can be right under my desk or just in the next room
it starts off ok but then it just drops

what kind of wireless card?

no idea.. its my laptop intel centrino


my main computer is still at 100mbps cause its cabled to the router

but my laptop is wireless to router and the connection speed keeps dropping..

Maybe check the device properties, or even the router. Sometimes you can tell it not so use the slower speeds.

I think DLINK you can say G-mode only.
