I have an older machine still running Windows 98 that my cable modem is
hooked up to and my Linksys wireless router is also attached to. It sends
out my internet signal to two Dell desktops running Windows XP Home in my
house. The two Dell machines had been working well as far as always being
able to boot up and grab and make the wireless internet connection.
In the past few weeks, only one of the Dell desktops has been having
difficulty connecting to the internet. The other desktop seems to be fine.
About 60% of the time I need to go into network connections and do a repair
of the network connection in order to establish the wireless connection. I
don't know why this is happening.
Any ideas as to why this might be happening lately and, more importantly,
what I can do to try and alleviate the situation? I originally thought that
perhaps my old Windows 98 machine might be the problem but it really just
doles out the signal to the router and out to both Dell machines. So I
don't think it is the problem.
Please help if you can!
Thanks,
Walter
