Has anyone heard of this problem: at my apartment I have a wireless router using a DSL connection. My wife when she was working at home alone was able to use her IBM thinkpad laptop with the wireless network and the network never went down. Now I am working at home, using my HP Pavillion ZE4900 laptop and the wireless network goes down a lot. This past weekend, she and I went to my father's house and he also has a wireless network where he works also on a laptop, also an IBM Thinkpad. When my wife was using her laptop, the network never went down. When I started up my laptop and tried to connect to the Internet, no one in the house could connect to the Internet. We had to disconnect the DSL modem multiple times in order to get the internet back. This morning, I chose not to use my laptop and neither my wife nor my father have had any connectivity issues, and not once did they have trouble accessing the Internet. Anyone with an idea of what's going on here?
