wireless card help

Hi. I think this is the right place to post this... Anyhow, my
computer, an HP ze4430us has a built in HP WLAN 54g W450 Network
Adapter that just won't stay connected w/the router. It will connect
to the internet for 2 or 3 minutes via the wireless router, but then
gets disconnected. It's almost like the wireless card stops seeing the
signal and drops out momentarily leaving me to have to connect to the
network over and over again. It does this on other wireless networks i
have connected to other than my own, also, so i don't think it has to
do w/the wireless router. Anybody have any idea what the issue might
be?

thanks in advance,
ah

We support Microsoft's Broadband Networking hardware and software only here,
but check your settings on the built-in adapter for having a check mark in
802.1x Authentication. If you're not running WPA encryption on your LAN,
you don't need that and could be getting the old run around because there's
nothing to authorize against.
