Hi there,

I am having problems with my wifi card, I get three bars of strength to my router normally, however, my card just seems to constantly keep disconnecting. It won't then re-conect until I have re-booted the router which is very annoying. I know it isn't the router as when my card won't connect, my phone and my father's laptop still do. Does anyone know what could be wrong???

Any help would be much appreciated.

What type of wi-fi card is it, PCI or USB? Have you updated the driver for it? Is it properly seated or pushed in all the way?

the easiest way to go about this would be to go to the mfg's website and look for their support section. unless you just so happen to have the box w/ manual handy

That may be a little hard, the router came from my father's business, they do our Internet.
