We have a desktop pc downstairs that is hooked up to a router. We have a work laptop that we use all of the time in the same location where we now have our newest personal laptop. The problem is that the wireless keeps disconnecting radomly, but usually after a couple of hours of non use. Then I have to restart the laptop and try to connect 2-3 times before it is successful. It does connect, but it says limited connectivity, but the strength is excellent. We have tried the work computer again in the same location and do not have the same problem with it. The only difference between the work laptop and the new one is the new one is an Acer brand, and it has a wireless mouse; but I even tried to not use the wireless mouse and I still have this problem. Oh and finally, we also have a wireless printer on the desk behind it, but again the main pc with the router is downstairs. 10 points to whoever suggests anything that works. :-)
