hi , i have 2 identical laptops bought last christmas for my 2 sons they are
both connected via a linksys wireless router as is the xp desktop .However one of the laptops drops the connection after about 20mins while the other maintains its connection.I have gone to great pains to make sure all the settings are the same in both laptops but i still have the same problem.Should i be looking for a fault in the network adapter? anyone got any ideas probably should mention the laptop in question was sent back after a week because the power supply jack was faulty -- martyb |

what type of router do you have? you could try calling linksy or the problem could be that your wireless router cannont handle the amount of download data that is coming from your sons laptops -- skript kiddie |
