Hi,
We recently got a new router. There are 3 computers on the network that work fine. My laptop, however, drops from the network approximately every 10 minutes without fail (almost to the second, actually). About half the time, the network key gets erased from the wireless connection properties and I have to enter it again. Also, most of the time when it's connected, it won't show that it is connected (when highlighted in the wireless network connections dialogue, it gives me the option to 'connect' instead of disconnect. I know this is the only network I am connected to). Also, when it's not connected, I have the option to disconnect (but I'm already disconnected?) It's a frustrating process of entering the network key again every time it drops, then disconnecting because that's the only option I have, then connecting again. Sometimes this takes a few tries. Selecting repair doesn't help.
I know very little about wireless connections, but does anyone know what I can do to help?

Also, when the network key gets deleted, its because the box detect network key automatically is checking itself.

Hi Embean!

I am writing because I have been looking for a solution on exactly the same problem for absolutely ages and you are the 1st person I could find having the same wireless melarchy. If you have found a solution for the problem or you know what triggered it, please let me know, otherwise I think we could help each other to resolve this issue if we shared info on what APs and wireless cards, etc we are using.

Please let me know what the status of your problem is and then we can agree on how to go on from here.

Thanks,

Attish
