I have recently in the last few days been experiencing some problems with the wireless network on my laptop. Every five minutes or so it completely cuts out and I have to reconnect. I feel like I could be getting some interference from something that is causing me to completely lose the signal for a few minutes at a time. I recently noticed that my neighbors have satalite dish on the side of their house. With the frequency that I am losing the signal could it be due to the use of a remote control powering that dish. My boyfriend suggeted to me that the channel/channels may need to be changed (router/modem?) but is unsure how to do so. We have a DSL modem with an ACTIONTEC wireless card that worked flawlessly until two days ago. I am not sure if the satelite dish has been there for a while or if it was just added. I did only notice it three days ago. Any help would be apprciated.
