I have 2 laptops, they are connected to a wireless router, why is it that all of the sudden my signal on 1 laptop is low and dropping connections, nothing was changed and it always worked, i did re-install the network driver, but still no good

any idea where i should be looking? thanks guys

it's wireless - its a flaky protocol. Christ its radio signals - cordless phones that run in the 2.4Ghz range may interfere, microwave ovens, and anyone else using the same channel with the same router.

Change your settings in the router, change the broadcast channel, move the AP and see if that works, and move the router away from cable/DSL modems, as they tend to overheat sitting on top of them.

Other than that, good luck.

Why are you bothering to ask for help when your not willing to listen? Never mind then - if you had any clue of how wireless works, you'd understand that it will break for no good reason.

Maybe the government is shooting hyper rays at your domicile to collect data. If you block the hyper rays, you should be fine.
