Answer 1

couple of small things...might fix the problem.

1 - restart the laptop

2 - restart the router ...when you restart.. don't start until 1 min.

most of the times.. this should filx the problem... also check the connection lights to make sure .. you're getting a signal..

good luck

Answer 2

Typically when this happens, it means you need to do a MAC (physical) address clone.

Here is how you find your physical (MAC) address in Windows XP:

Click Start

Click Run

Type this command: cmd

Click OK

Type this command: ipconfig /all

Your physical address for your wireless device is your MAC address.  You need to clone this in your router.

Answer 3

idk bout switching numbers or anything...........leave it alone. this generally happens to my laptop but only when im really far away from my router. it works for a while then it quits and says limited connectivity. what i do is turn the power off on the router and turn it back on, then unplug the power cord of the router and plug it back in. thats what i do and it always fixes it.
