Hi Friends
Welcome in My Blog
There are numerous reasons for dropped wireless connections.
Here are some of the most
common solutions for intermittent wireless connection problems that we come across.
- You are trying to connect using Windows XP Service Pack 1. One of the major
reasons Microsoft brought out Windows XP Service Pack 2 was to fix the numerous
wireless networking flaws with SP1.
So first you should check whether you have
Service Pack 2 or not.
(Go to Control Panel > System > General Tab)
- If you’re experiencing wireless connection drops using a laptop, it is possible that
your wireless network card has a feature known as power management enabled.
Power Management should be disabled.
- Make sure you have the latest drivers for your network card installed. (A driver is a
basically a piece of software the makes sure a hardware component is able to
“communicate” with your version of Windows).
Having the latest driver version
means any driver flaws have been ironed out by the manufacturer.
- Another solution to this problem would be to change the Preamble Type on your
network card (of the computer that is dropping the connection).
To change this, go to
Start > Control Panel > Network Connections > Right Click on your Wireless
Connection > Select Properties > Click on Configure > Select Advanced Tab > Look
under the left hand column called “Property” > here you should see Preamble or PLSC header > change the default setting from auto/short/long to “long only”.
(What is preamble anyway?- preamble is what determines how long a wireless card will wait
for a return response for a wireless router, if it does not receive a reply within a set
period of time, the wireless link just times out, setting the preamble mode to “long
only” gives it the maximum possible time to get a signal and greatly improves
connection quality.
