Hi,

Everytime I download something in RAR, I get CRC failed message while extracting. This was not occuring until I got a NETGEAR router. I've read that this problem can be caused by modems, so, how can I fix this?

Is it the router?

Thanks.
 
Can you temporarily remove the router and run the computer directly off the modem? Try downloading a RAR file then. If the CRC error stops, the router is at fault. If the error is still there. It may be a hard drive issue. CRC used to mean Cyclic Redundancy Check with hard drives or CD/DVD ROMs

This may help:

oh sorry I forgot to mention that I tried downloading files directly using my modem instead of using the router and I don't get the error if I use the modem.

The problem is with the router.
