Wireless Connection Issue

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

Hi

If the Laptop works OK at the Work site and does not work at home it is
probably configured for the Work site's parameters, and those are not the
same as your home system.

WinXP let you configure a second connection

Or use a third party Software (Use MSN search look for the term Net Switch).

P.S. If it works well somewhere else and you have a second Laptop that works
OK at Home it means that your systems basics are OK. Do not flash firwares
and apply "Fixes" you might end up "Messing Up" a good Working Network
