Mitch Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 i'd say that wireless adapter you have is no good.if you need to switch the setup back to wifi, consider getting an access point. I have a Dlink DAP-1150 which works pretty good. Connects to wifi then spits an ethernet connection out.Or get a dlink, linksys etc. adapter that is half decent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabDJ Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 My Iinet stopped working again today, phoned the company and bit the head off some poor cow.She had to go and vomit in the toilet so I was put on to a ex police negotiator who talked me down and we eventually got it going again. Fifth time crash with this mob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Raptor Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 You could also try changing the wireless channel that the access point uses to communicate. If you are in an apartment block or have a 2.4gb cordless phone, if they use the same frequency as your access point, it can cause instability and range issues.Almost all AP's and wireless routers have 13 channels to play with.One of the earlier posts which said your wireless card is no good could well be on the money too. updating the driver would be a good start.... hey, if it driver download fixes it, then you save some $$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
