Hi guys,

since I got back from uni, which was a LAN connection, I have had this in my systray...

help.jpg


There is that little windows shield over the internet connection icon, and i have 'local and internet' displayed as opposed to 'Internet'. I get disconnected about every 20 minutes or so, and it then reconnects to network. Sometimes i have to disconnect and reconnect as it has just dropped the network.

I've checked my wireless drivers and they are uptodate, signal strength is satisfactory. The windows firewall doesnt seem to be blocking anything that might cause this.

Sometimes i get error messages when i click 'diagnose and repair' about assigning a new I.P?

Any help is greatly apprieciated.

Thanks

Benny C

Edit: Have just switched off the bluetooth as 'it could affect connection stability'
