Post Wireless card help
I have an integrated wireless card in my PC that I use to game on. Lately it has been disconnecting me like crazy. Really annoying when Im in the middle of a comp. match on GO. Its not my router because my phone stays connected to it the whole time and it never loses signal. But I disconnect for about 30 seconds then im usually able to reconnect. I updated all my drivers and everything last night. Helped a little as im able to reconnect a little bit faster and it doesnt occur as often, but still an annoyance. I think it might just be dying. Any ideas?

I think most integrated wireless on mobos is user replacable, been a while since I had one.

did you add any new components to the computer prior to the problem starting? if not, it is most likely going bad, you can snag a usb wirless dongle(hehe dongle) for less than 20 bucks and they work fine, I use one on my other pc. http://www.amazon.com/Medialink--150Mbp ... b+wireless

if you have a free pci slot I can probably send you one, if you can't figure it out and don't wanna drop some cash.

well if you have a free pci slot and want me to send you a wireless card let me know.

I would double check that the wireless antenna screws aren't loose at all before you give up

Im just going to get a dongle and call it good. Dont really feel like messing with it. Its an HP elite box and they are a pain in the ass to work on with the easy media drive bracket covering up most of the mobo.
