Wireless Problem

[d17c]

Hey, my wireless has been playing up today, and I have no idea why.
When I'm on my pc, I have about 2 minutes after connecting to a network before it decides to stop working.
When I say 'stop working', I mean it stays connected, but I can't access any sites, can't download through Limewire, and when I view the network status, it says that no packets are being transferred.
So I have to keep clicking on repair, getting 2 minutes of internet access, then repeating.

It only does it on my PC, not my laptops, so I doubt it's a router problem.

Anyone know how to sort it out, or what might be causing it?

Well , firstly id re-install any drivers assoated with the wireless adapter if it is wireless of course. Re add any connections

If this failed

His laptop could have built in wireless so he wouldn't have any drivers for it if that's the case. Maybe your router isn't too good and can't handle more than 1 or 2 devices. Try turning all other devices connected to the network off and have a look what happens.

Tried it many times before, doesn't help at all.
And of course it's wireless :)

The router's used to handling about 4 devices, so I doubt it's that.
I'll just cope have to cope with it.

My router handles 14 devices and dies on over 2 wireless devices.

Run a anti virus scan.

If it's still not working, I suggest you reset your router or buy a new one. You router may of just died, my old one did, this one is dying.
