Wireless does not keep connection 1

[cdlvj]

The connection get established, and then goes off, back on, off. What could cause this? Link is 90% strong.

Could be another wireless interfering, and depending on you settings, you may be connecting onto the other entwork. COuld be a power issue with an AP...

Do you get any error messages? How long does it go off for? What set up do you have?

 

[cdlvj]

Correct, some kind of interference. Moved the computer, and it is working.

I had a similar problem from my laptop to my pc where the link would stay on for about 15 minutes or so then disconnect. I turned off XP's firewall since I had ZoneAlarm.

I had installed ZoneAlarm when I got the laptop, but since I thought I was having slowdowns with it getting to the network, I had just turned it off.

When I uninstalled Zone Alarm completely the disconnect problem went away.
