    Hi

    I have a samsung series 3 NP350v5c laptop

    I have had this problem from since I bought it years ago.. even after I changed hard drive and reinstalled windows.

    When I try to connect to WiFi I get "limited connectivity", I disconnect, try again to connect, and again I get that "limited connectivity".

    After a while of this, maybe 5min, i'm finally able to.

    I understand that some samsung laptops of this make have an intel wireless adaptor, and some have some other make.. I have the other make like atheros or realtek.

    I'm sure this is a standard problem as i think i've heard of it.. I wonder if anybody else has run into the exact issue and solved it?

    Is there anything I can do?

    Thanks
