I have a Microsoft wireless internet access kit set-up in my apartment to
access the internet. I have a MN 700 base station and MN 720 wireless access
card. Both meet the 802.11g standards. I have setup a small home network to
share the internet access between two laptops. Both the laptops have same
wireless access card (MN 720). I have been having lot of problems in
accessing the internet.
I cannot remain connected to the internet more then one hour continuously.
After every 30 minutes or so i have to actually disconnect the power supply
for the base station to reset the base station. I tried chaging the security
key authentication to a 16 bit and also tried turning security off
completely. I then tried changing the channel for my wireless netwrok as it
could interfere with neighbouring cordless phones. I tried channel 3,6,9,4.
All of them gave the same result. And they cause the same trouble on both
the laptops. Both laptops are running Microsoft windows XP home edition. I
am really frustrated with the current problem. Every half hour or so go and
reset the base station , how ridiculous? I think i was better of buying a
wired router rather then going wireless but i already invested my money and
now i am stuck. Can somebody help me ???????
