Hi, bought this a last week and since then have had nothing but problems
with it loosing connection.
I hope that one of you good peeps will know the answer or at least point me
at someone/where that can help
Running Win XP Pro on main machine
Running w2k pro on toshiba laptop
Connection configured with WPA-PSK security
For no apparent reason the network connection will drop between the laptop
and router or the pc and router (only once or twice have both machines lost
connectivity togetehr).
The wireless utilites on both machines say that it can see the network, can
identify the SSID and reports strong signal (there is only about 4 feet
between them, but would like to put them further apart).
When connectivity is lost then on the PC it reports finding network, network
found but can't get an IP address and then loops around and around. The only
resolution is to switch the Router off and on again..... or disable the PCI
card and then enable it again.
When the Laptop looses connectivity it can be either when you first switch
it on, it loops between telling me that media is disconnected, media
connected but the utilities can't get an IP address and then I get a message
about media being disconnected again. Leaving the laptop alon and then
switching router off and on again usually establishes link.
Whilst in use then similar to what happens to the PC happens, working away
great then boom, gone, in the case of the laptop though disabling card and
enabling it again doesn't work, you have to power the router off and on
again is needed to establish the link.
Any more info is avail on request
