Hey all, I'm new to the board, not so new to
wireless though. I just upgraded from your basic
DSL to cable. In the process I bought a new
router (Linksys WRT54GS), a new modem (Linksys, dunno
the model), and a Linksys wireless G range
expander. I'm running XP Pro with service pack 2.
I must say I'm very happy with my Linksys stuff
right now, however I'm having some problems with
the wireless aspect. It seems like my laptop is
dropping connections randomly. Also, when Windows boots
I have to manually check "Use Windows to detect
my wireless network". But with the range expander,
I pretty much get good recepetion all over the
house, so I have no clue why I'd be dropping
a connection. Also, even when I'm connected, the
icon in the tray says I'm not. I have all my
computers and Xbox staticly assigned. If I forgot
to add anything just ask, the card I'm using on
my laptop is a wireless Linksys G card.

Could it be a problem with your wireless card?
Do you have any other wireless devices connected
and do they work ok?
You could try uninstalling the wireless card,
re-booting the laptop. then re-install the drivers.
It may also be worth trying to download the
latest drivers for your card.
