hi recently my computer started showing problem with internet connection.when i try to connect it shows problem loading profile. when i start repair ,it disables the network card enables it ...and internet connection starts.i have to always repair the wireless connection when i want to connect.how to avoid it?

remove the wireless network you have, reboot and rebuild it.

I wonder At a place that provided Wireless Internet, I have seen a Tech person using his laptop and a special program. The program picked up other Wireless Routers, and the Channel they were operating on. The object being maybe not to use the same "Channel" that other Routers may be using. ???

Chuck - I believe the special program you've seen the Tech person run from his laptop may be the same type I use to detect available access points - Netstumbler. http://www.netstumbler.com/downloads/ There is no way anyone can detect routers that do not have Access Point enabled. i_Xp/VistaUser

Hello NYC -- That may be cool, but I wonder why my Laptop, wireless Adaptor, and XP would not show any available networks to connect to. Yet the Tech Persons showed 5 or 6 networks in the area. Any thoughts ??? EDIT @ om_aru http://www.microsoft.com/athome/mor... 10 tips for improving your wireless network

All I can guess is that the tech picks up rogue access points that may have been filtered or blocked from yours for good reasons. i_Xp/VistaUser

If you go in to make a new wireless connection you should see all available networks. That's how its been on various wireless cards I have used. Imagine the power of knowing how to internet search http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/TeachingLib/Guides/Internet/FindInfo.html
