Hi,
I have been having problems with my wireless router I think. Everyone once in a while i will lose my connection, sometimes it comes back or sometimes i have to reconnect. Does anyone know what would cause this? I have already updated the firmware and that did not help. Could this happen if there are 2 connections with the same name in my area?
Thanks

maybe, rename yours and see

Update your Wireless Card Drivers as well.
It could. If they have the same specs. (Same Name/Password/or both no password), it could be trying to connect to that one. Make yours different in some way.
Take out all the rembered networks out of your "remembered" networks in the Network/Sharing Center.
See how that works. -

Ran well all last night after I changed the name, but the first thing this morning it went down a minute after it came on from boot. I did update the wireless card drivers right from Intel not the notebook company. Does this happen every once in a while on wireless connections? I am using a belkin54 router. When i look the wireless connection is still on the list, does this mean that it is the card or the router?

It can be either drivers, hardware, or even Windows....did you change the default wireless channel? That can do wonders for interference issues with other networks

How do I change the default wireless channel, sorry dont know much about wireless.
Thanks -
first use the program above to see if that is the issue
Load it, look under channel, and see if their are others using the same channel -
Your problem is called "Belkins", get another brand (e.g. netgear).
-
There is another Belkin connection same channel same frequency.
-
I was using that program and watching it while it went out. My connection dissappeared from the list for a a few seconds then reappeared. This looks like to me that it could be my router?
-
Is there a way to figure out if the router is the problem or the notebook?
THanks -
use two laptops to see if it goes out on both
wireless problems!
