Iv been looking at a PC for someone who has been having extensive wireless issues, I have tried everything, a new USB Wireless stick Netgear WG111v3 (using the Windows Wireless Utility only and not the Netgear utility, although that has been tried), they even had a new router from Sky with the latest firmware.
It seems fine on their laptops, but not on the desktop PC, I have wiped the PC clean, put windows XP back on, it seemed to have worked but its started again, I have tried several USB ports on the PC.
It can be fine for a few days, then the WLAN connection on the PC will just flicker between connected and not connected. The router is about 5 meters away and signal strengh is good to excellent.
Anyone have any ideas?
