Make sure you have the latest drivers, router and NB.

Does it connect on reboot with the SSID off?

Does it work on repair?

if so, check your energy settings, some times they power down the wireless to save energy. There are also settings on how it behaves.

Have u called their technical support? I hear some people have the same issue as u, where the thing sometimes just doesn't feel like working...and other times, it does... I'm not sure if it's an actual glitch with the thing, or not. give them a call, and respond here with what they say >.<
