Losing Wireless Netowrk Connection

**dragon2309** · 08-16-2005, 01:15 AM

In the last few days i have been losing my connection to my wireless network, it seems to ahppen randomly with no provocation from myself. I havent installed/changed anything that would make this happen.

I have scanned with Adaware and AVG and they only returned the usual suspects of spyware etc... nothing that would lead to my problem.

It can happen when im browsing the web, playing music, idleing in windows, anything. I really have no control. The connection will stay for about 5 mins then be down and gone for about an hour, then it will return for 5 mins.

Any help from anyone would be great, my system spec and network card are in my sig if you need them.

My guess would be the router, I've had a few do this type of thing to me before...

I have reset the router several times to no avail. Im using a BT Voyager 2100 Wireless Router...

Thought i would update you all. I was going through the listof thigns that you do when something goes wrong. I got to the part of resetting the BIOPS, did it rebooted and bang, theres my conenction up again. And its stayed there aswell. The only oconnection i can make between the two things is that i have recently pushed a bit further in overclocking my system, maybe this froze out the PCI bridge or something, ah well, its working now.

Thanks for your help dciscouts!!
