I just built a Clevo M560A (Sager 5320) this week. I put in an Intel PRO Wireless 2915ABG wireless card that came with the computer. The wireless card is WORKING, but the connection constantly becomes super slow or just drops off altogether (when on Firefox I will not be able to load a page about every 5 minutes, when playing Counterstrike my game freezes for about 10 seconds every two minutes or so). The other laptop I have doesn't have any problems (that has an external card), nor did my old laptop with an older Intel card in it. The network is not encrypted, there is merely an access filter and this computer is enabled on it. So.. what could be wrong?

Problem solved! It wasn't a driver issue per se, I just had to update the Intel PROset Wireless program to the latest version... the version that came on my drivers CD was causing connection drops.. the new version I got from the Intel site works perfect!
I was beginning to think I broke something on the card when I put it in... thank god for the internet.
Wireless connection dropping!
