Default Wireless Disconnection


I installed my wireless test lab but one of the problems
I noticed now is that my wireless internet connection
seems to get disconnected every 4-5mins.

So i have to re-connect it frequently...could someone
help in this regard.

cheers,
Jo

Hi.
Dropping the signal might be due to environmental Noise 2.4GHz phones etc.
First make sure that you get a stable connection without WEP(or WPA) and
only then attend to the security issues.
The following page (in the middle) contains the info that you asked for.

thanks its working well now.

It was actually coz i had checked the 'Enable 802.11x
authentication on' when i didn;t have a server for that.

so i believe, the card from the laptop was trying to
authenticate with server very 4-5 mins and when it
couldn;t do this, it just disconnected.

hope this would be helpful for others as well.

cheers,
jo
