    Hi,

    It seems like the wireless card of your system is weak in picking up signals try changing the channel number of your wireless SSID and this should resolve your problem.

    Open up your router`s setup by entering the default gateway IP, enter username password if prompted ->go to WiFi or Wireless Lan setting and make sure that broadcasting is b/g/n mixed mode, then check what broadcasting channel is selected starting from 1 to 11/13, in case of extreme start or end make in middle like 6 or 7 and in case of any middle number like 6 to 8 make it either 10 or 3. By changing the broadcasting channel shall hopefully stop any interference with other frequencies.

    Good Luck

    Turn off your WiFi, restart computer, and then wait a minute and turn it back on...if it doesn't work than go to an underground bunker bc Y2K is upon us !
