Some home devices can cause interference between your computer and networks that might be in range. For example, microwave ovens and some cordless phones use the 2.4 gigahertz (GHz) frequency, which is also used by 802.11b and 802.11g network hardware. Other cordless phones use the 5 GHz frequency, which is used by 802.11a network hardware.

There are two things you can try in this situation:

If any devices like these are near your computer, turn them off temporarily or move them farther away.

Change the router or access point settings to use a different wireless channel, or set the channel to be selected automatically if it is set to a fixed channel number. Sometimes, one wireless channel is clearer than others. In the United States and Canada, you can use channels 1, 6, and 11. Check the information that came with your access point or router for instructions about setting the wireless signal channel.

also, With 802.11b or 802.11g routers and access points, the maximum range is up to 150 feet (46 meters) indoors and 300 feet (92 meters) outdoors. With 802.11a routers and access points, the maximum range is 50 feet (15 meters) indoors and 100 feet (30 meters) outdoors. These ranges are in optimal conditions with no interference. Make sure that your computer is within this range and as close as possible to the router or access point. If the computer is portable, try moving it around to determine the range of the wireless signal and the best place to put the computer.

If you are unable to get closer to the router or access point, you might want to consider buying and installing an external antenna to your wireless network adapter. Many wireless network adapters are set up so that you can attach an external antenna to them, which will provide you with better reception than the built-in antenna. Check the information that came with your wireless network adapter to see if you can install an additional antenna.

Right click the wireless network connection icon which appears on the system tray > select "Repair."

while you're specific it is not a distance concern between the router and your pc, then i will think of that there is a concern including your pc's instant adapter. even if if that's a geared up-in adapter, you are able to attempt borrowing a PCMCIA instant card from a chum and attempt with that. in case you do use a PCMCIA instant card, attempt to not relax your hand on it on an identical time as you utilize your pc, as this might reason the instant sign to drop.

Make sure that the wireless switch to activate your adapter is on.
