Try wire, is there a object near you that is like electronic, move you laptop around if you still get the same problem, try update your hardware. Also are you running application like torrent which is know for stop other internet program when use it, make no program that use internet were running and see how long before it disconnect.

unplug your router power wire from the back for 10 seconds. and plug it back in, this will refresh the connection.

Reply:I was having the same problem......I called Belkin wireless....my wireless router support and they will take you step by step and tell you what to do.





You can unplug for the router for 2 minutes and then plug it back in.......but, it would only last me for a couple of hours or even less.





What is the name of your router?





Call your router company.....make sure you have your model number or they will not assist you.





Good Luck
Reply:Before you go and trade your laptop for an equally crappy HP, Try a few of the following.





A. Temporarily remove all kinds of security from your router. You can always put it back on, if that doesn't solve your problem. It could be that your wireless config on the laptop doesn't retain your WEP or WPA password. You can bypass that by enabling MAC address restrictions on your router.





B. Disable the management of your wireless card being handled by Dell's Software. Don't uninstall the Driver, but get WIndows to manage your wireless connection.





C. in the properties of your wireless adapter, remove all other wireless networks that you no longer need. Move your home network to the top of the list.





Hope this helps
