why does my wireless network keep disconnecting?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

could it be interference? weak signal?
there are many things that use 2.4GHz.
try changing channel

WZC also trys to update itself in terms of best connection every so often.
there are past threads on disabling this and using the makers drivers
try that also.

this worked for me, read up on it first

start, run, type services.msc

look for wireless zero configuration
right click on it
properties
startup set to manual

if you move around a lot you will have to reactivate tis to connect to different networks. I use a desktop so it's not an issue for me


i think microsoft set wireless connections to always look for a stronger signal so it disconnects from yours and tries to connect to a different one even though its secured and not yours. stupid if you ask me
