Hi all,

I have a DV5-1111ea that recently started having wireless issues, if I take the card out and resynchronise it then it will work for an hour maybe then the same issue. However, the Ethernet port does the same now and then neither work. I have done fresh format with Vista and Windows 7 with no luck to fix the issue, sometimes if lucky it'll find the hardware and re-install the drivers again.

All connections are firmly in place inside the laptop, nothing is conflicting with anything to cause the issue. I have tried several drivers, no options in BIOS or power settings disabling them.

The only other thing I can think of is a new wireless card, but if the current works then surely that is not the card that is having issues, the same happens with a wireless adapter I used from the desktop of a friend. Nothing to do with the router either as neighbours can connect to it fine and use it fine.

Any help with this would be great, thanks!
