| 838736 | 2009-12-11 02:58:00 | Using a 2wire wireless router from Telecom for our home wireless network and generally have 4 laptops connecting (sometimes all together :D ) of various makes and models. Last night 3 were on and my wifes old IBM lost connections so after much mucking around re-set the router and while I connected straight away we had to set hers up again with the SSID and password and then all was good ..... only problem was now our daughters Toshiba lost signal and while she could see every other wireless network in the neighborhood ours did not show up in the list. Ended up fixing this by going into the Router and re-setting the wireless set-up to as new, and after that all good. Justs had the call from home, wireless working fine all day and she hibernates her laptop (Toshiba) for half an hour comes back and there is no connection and she cant see the home network. any suggestions welcome so I can try and fix when I get home. cheers |

| 838739 | 2009-12-11 04:12:00 | Try disabling the hibernation - quite often that will cause the wireless tolose its connection - easy way to test this is when it disables again, reboot the Laptops - if it comes back right way thats the problem. | wainuitech (129) | ||

After changing the SSID to what it 'was' the laptop connected immediately ..... bizarre. Never had a problem with hibernation before as this is the normal practice for everyone at home, and re-booting machines did not seem to work. tks |
