Re - Connection

Hi there,

Every now and again, my connection keeps dropping with my router, I can
reconnect it but I must do it manually by literlly telling the computer to
connect to the router, on my other computers, they connect automaticlly but
this 1 doesn't,

So please can somone tell me what to do to make it connect automaticlly,

Thanks,

From Porthos.

Since you don't experience problems with your other computers, the
router is not misbehaving. Look at your wireless adapter's properties
in Device Manager. See if there is a Power Management tab and if you
can turn off power management by unchecking "allow Windows to turn off
the device...". See if that helps.
