Wireless problems

[Xpire]

Hi again guys,

Friend has asked me to fix their laptop and i've been trying to solve the problem but no luck so far.

It's a laptop, and once it boots up i connect it to a wireless network, after a couple of minutes the wireless will simply just dissapear! The "Wireless Network Connection" dissapears, and so too does the wireless network adaptor in the device manager. Haven't figured out how to temporarily solve this problem, but it seems to automatically fix itself after a few hours of being turned off...

I've tried connecting to different wireless networks and seeing if that was the problem, but that didn't solve anything.

Any ideas guys?

Loose connection?

Is it an older PCMCIA card with dust in the socket?

Nope,
Pretty new laptop, still has the protective plastic on it lol.
It's a Acer Aspire 4720Z

Hmmm In that case(without actually seeing it) I would stick with my loose connection theory for now , especially if it's disappearing from device manager!

I know this is said a lot, but try updating the drivers? make sure it isnt loose, make sure its installed properly etc...

try to use the recovery options otherwise it will be some damage in the
motherboard , so
return the laptop to the vendor
