Hi All, I have two problems and was looking for ideas.
Current setup is like this :- I have two laptops and two routers "available" to me (well one is the next door neighbours that isn't encrypted :-) ). My work laptop will connect to both without any problem whatsoever and never drops the line. My home laptop connects to the next door neighbours fine with no problem. Having said that the home laptop does "briefly" connect to my home router but drops ALL the time. So my questions being would be, is it my home laptop or the router at fault? If it's the router, then why would my work laptop be fine with it? If it's the laptop, then why would it connect to the neighbours router perfectly ok (and never drop)? Ok, next problem is this. The home laptop is incredibly slow to connect wireless connection at startup/logon. (Or even just selecting "Start", then "Network Connections" to browse / connect to.) I've added the usual stuff of specifying the ip and DNS addresses to the wireless connection, and it is still very slow. Does anyone have any recommendations of some software that displays timings of startup items so as I can track it down further. I tried Boot Log XP from here www.greatis.com/utilities/bootlogxp/, but it only records the log process for 30 seconds, (which is nowhere near enough for my laptop - it always is usually 4 to 5 minutes + to get connected / started up). Any thoughts or recommendations would be gratefully received (other than BOOTVIS).
