| subject: | WLAN acting up |
From: "Antti Kurenniemi" I've got WLAN set at my office, and it's started acting funny: I can use it for like a couple of hours (one hour yesterday, about three today) normally, and then all of a sudden my computer (XP Pro) drops the wireless connection. Then it re-connects automatically, stays on for 10-30 seconds and drops off again. Then reconnect, and so on and so on. It never gets to a normal state again before I reboot the system, after which it seems to work normally. I had MS Virtual PC installed for a while, and got some bluescreens with that. I think it may have been related to the network drivers. I uninstalled it, and manually cleared out everything I could find related to the VPC setup. Then I tried VMWare Workstation for a while, and had this problem (on-off-on-off), so I uninstalled VMWare as I thought that was the cause, but it's still happening. In any case, I think it's this computer and not the access point because a reboot cures it. I've done spyware sweeps and full virus scan, disk check and defragment, and uninstalled everything possible so that the system is running as few processes as possible, but still it just happened. Any ideas what to check?
