Wireless connection problem

[Cbott]

When I start my Pavilion dv9653cl note book it sometimes will not see any wireless network. My router is closeby and the signal strength is execellent. There are some other networks in the area, but I have the computer set to only connect to mine. I am running Vista Home premium. Using 802.11g router (Linksys)
Any ideas?

Since last Thursday I have the same issue with my HP ZD8000 series. Sometimes detects the network, othertimes not. I have an external wireless PCMCIA card and it works perfectly when I plug it.
I guess it's an issue with regards sensitivity therefore I'm going to activate the warranty for the 2nd time in this Laptop.

Now for some strange reason it is working fine. Don't know if it is operating system or hardware problem. Next time I am going to do same thing and dump it in HP's lap.

i am having the same problem too. i am using compaq 6720s with vista business. using the same router(Linksys). Please tell me how did you configure it. Mine i have set Security Type as WPA-Personal and Encryption Type as TKIP

I have had similar experiences with Vista 32 premium installed. It turns out the operating system is losing the router's (BT Home Hub) password. Re-entering this enables full connection to router and also tinternet.

I have faced it with Linksys v7 routers. I reconfigured my encryption to WEP and its working fine from them.
