Title: More 'puter problems (wireless problems)
Post by: Jamisjockey on February 27, 2006, 05:03:35 AM

This time its with my wireless network.  We have a basic setup.  Cable modem, split into a wireless router, then into the PC and 'net phone.  Laptop is an HP, about 10 months old.  Over the last two months we've had a problem with losing our network.  HP wireless ass says that there are no networks in range...even when its 2' from the router.  We've swapped out the router with no luck.  We've used a signal booster with no luck.  To get the signal back, I have to remove the wireless battery to restart it.  Its very inconsistent on why it drops the signal.  
Ideas?

Can you be a bit more specific?

Laptop model, wireless hardware info (internal to laptop or card slot), driver versions, etc...

Are you using the Intel Pro-Set or Windows for wireless connectivity??  They could be conflicting, or maybe the internal antenna connector is loose.

Post some more info, maybe we can nail it down.....
