I have a Ethernet Braodband Router and a Wireless-G Broadband Router
Lately my internet connection has been really slow and I have cable internet too
it'll either disconnect alot or goes really slow.
I can't really upload files 10MB and up because it'll just stop after.
My downloading is okay, but it's been downloading slower then before.
I didn't have this problem before so I was wondering
if the routers are the ones that is screwing up my connection?
I'll so much appreciate the help.

Yes, its very likely one of the routers is closing the port after X seconds. Why do you use 2 routers?

I think it's either or
One of the routers is causing it or it isn't configured right.
The 2 routers are for a pc in one the bedroom and lap top. The computer I'm using is the main computer (living room) which the routers are installed and connected to. When I turn off/disconnect the routers, my cable box is going but when I go on internet it always comes out to page displayed.
How do I turn my routers into a switch-like device?

so the wireless is in your bedroom and the wired one is in your living room? so does that mean your cable is connected to the wired router? A clear detail would really help. this is what i would do if i have a wired and a wireless(which i do) router. Make your wireless the main router(connected to the cable) then plug in your computer wire. Use "port 4" on the wireless to connect to the wire router "Uplink" port. This would make your wire router to a switch/hub-like device.
