I have a desktop and laptop connected to a belkin wireless router. Desktop is via a belkin wireless 802.11g desktop network card. It's speeds and connection come and go. The laptop is consistent, so it's a problem with the wireless card.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Scott:
Try these first:
change channels to 1-6-or 11. Make sure you change all of your wireless computers.
check is to make sure you are NOT using "IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network."
You can find at setting under "Wireless Network Connection Properties" and then under "Authentication" tab of your network properties.
This particular authentication method is periodically logging you off the network and re-authenticating.
Check the adapter in device manager to make sure that windows is not shutting the adapter down to save power.
Cordless phones and wireless ethernet cards use overlapping frequencies.As a test, you can unplug the AC cords from all the cordless phones in the area and see if it helps.
Try going to the usb and the wireless adapter in device manager, properties. And make sure that the computer does not shut them off to save power.
Please let me know how you make out.
thanks
