Why can't I get wireless sometimes?

Does the signal just die or does it show that you have some percentage of link quality, like excellent or very good. \n\nYou say that you have two other routers hooked up for range increases, but if they are actaully routers instead of just range expanders, then I beleive the problem is what I have here at my house:\n\nThe other routers are thinking that they are the one that is supposed to connect to your computer. How do you have the other routers hooked up? I have two routers in my house do they can combine to be one bigger network. Its tricky to set up and finally get to work right. You have to tell the other routers not to use DHCP to distribute the addresses the the computers on the network.\n\nDO you have a laptop? Is that what you are connecting with the wireless? You said that your PC is hooked up to the router, so that wouldn't need wireless.\n\nThis is a really hard question to answer over 'answers', please let me know some more details.\nJupiterSSJ4

its the number is ghz your wireless phone has....its interrupts the connection and slows or disconnects it. To fix this problem get a lower or higher GHZ...make sure its not 2.5

There is no best one, however, your problems may be related to how you've set it up.\n\nThings to do:\n\nTurn off SSID broadcasting\nEnable MAC address filtering\nTurn on WEP or WPA encryption\nMake sure you're on a clear channel\n\nLastly, other devices, such as some cordless phones (those running on the 2.4ghz frequency) etc, can interfere with your wireless router.\n\nIf you've done all those things, and you still have problems, there may be issue's with that particular router, i.e., maybe it's a lemon.

May be there's a limit on accepting wireless connections.

There must be a source of interference or the distance is too long, most wireless routers have a maximum distance for usage. Check your equipment manual, if you don't have it search it in the manufacturer's web site. It is possible that your equipment has a failure.

your nic/wireless is disabled, misconfigured or dead.

Has this been happening ever since you set it up? Could be bad hardware. Check the manufacturer website for any firmware updates that could resolve the issue.\nhere's some research from google\nhttp://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=RNWK,RNWK:2005-50,RNWK:en&q=wireless+signal+keeps+dropping\nalso, where is the wireless access point located and how far are you from it? does this seem to happen even when you are in the same room as the WAP. If it does, then take your computer ( I assume that it's a laptop) to another location where you can connect wirelessly and see if the computer does the same thing. If it does, then reload/update drivers for the wireless card. You could also contact the manufacturer to see if this is a known issue (they wont disclose that it is a known issue and some times they won't post info on the customer support site, so just ask them to trouble shoot and determine the best course of action).

Your not giving enough information to properly troubleshoot the problem. There could be a many number issues why your wireless connection from the way you have it setup, software problems, or hardware issues. Please give more details of your problem in your next question.

It sounds like you're receiving interference.  Even with wired devices, this can happen.  But it's much more prone to occur with wireless.\n\nDo you have a wireless network that runs on the same frequency? Wireless internet? Or even possibly someone near you also with a wireless mouse.

There should be an icon on the right bottom corner that has a bubble that pops up when it detects wireless internet. Apparently your computer has a built-in wireless card so it should pick up signal. It is probably turned off, you can turn it on by going to the bottom right corner and looking for the icon with the little signal bars (sort of like on ur cellphone). Right click it and see what the status is, you might be getting low connectivity that does not allow you to connect. If it's not on, turn it on (enable). Your internet should work, it might not the first couple of times you open internet explorer (or whatever browser you use), but it will. Try it out at a library, coffee shop, or any place that offers free wi-fi.\nHope this helps

move closer to it. hahaha sorry. you should get in range of the network first. then if you are still having problems, try removing any obstacles that might be interferring with your signal reception. you might also try (if its your network) a wireless repeater to boost signal strength.

Not sure if this will help, but this recently happened to a friend.\nTheir situation was similar, where they kept having issues trying to connect multiple wireless devices.\n\nLooking at their router setup, someone had locked down the number of addresses the router would give out via DHCP.\n\nIt was locked down to give out only 2, and since their desktop would take one, once another device came on line, no one else would be able to surf.\n\nSo, check your DHCP settings, and see if it is limited.

What kind of Router are you using. Try to see if by upgrading the Firmware from the Manufacturer's website will fix the problem. Have you tried a different port on your router, it could be a defected port since your wireless portions is working fine. You can also try setting up a static ip address on your computer and see if you keep getting disconnected. Have you checked the Lease option on your Router to see how long they can have the Ip address that it sends out. Try setting up your computer first with a static ip address and see if that works for you if not update your Router with the latest firmware. If neither of those options work might be that your Router might be going bad, check if it is still under warranty and have it replaced but do the steps and see if that works for you.

get a wireless router

If you've enables security in any form (WEP, WPA, etc) be sure you are using the correct passphrase and/or key to access the wireless router.\n\nIf in doubt, reset the router to factory setting (look in your manual) and try to connect. By default there is no security set in the factory defaults.
