I use my laptop in 2 separate locations - home and away. At home, I connect to my network via my Netgear WGXB102 Powerline system into a BT HomeHub - normally without difficulty (but see below). In addition, I use my laptop at my local church where we also have a WGXB102 Powerline system into a Netgear DG834N router; however, although the laptop eventually connects ok, it constantly drops the connection (then reconnects again automatically). Non of the other visiting laptops have the same connectivity problems - their connections are always strong and stable. I have not encountered this problem elsewhere.
When I use the laptop again at home, after using the laptop at church, it takes 2-3 attempts to get a solid connection - once I do, it remains good, and always connects automatically and quickly via the home WGXB102/BT Homehub system.
I am running WinXP and also have Network Magic installed - tho' I use the WinXP Wireless Manager to manage by connections.
Any 'steers' to cure the constantly dropping connection at my church network would be gratefully received.
