Re: help

One possibility is that your wireless card is inferior to the one on the other laptop. Try using your computer in another location with wi fi.

Re: help

Oh I know, its probably your adapter, if it feels even slightly warm then unplugit and let it sit somewhere cool for about half an hour, trust me I had the same problem
