My Wireless Connection

Question

Ok I have an Inspiron E1505, I had boughten a D-Link router it worked for the night i hoooked it up, but then the next mornin, it would not connect to the router, so it said i would need to repair the problem it would go through everything such as connecting to the internet and such, but then it would come to renewing I.P adress and it would stay there for a few minutes then finally say it was unable to fix the problem. I took that router back thinkin it was the brand and i purchased a Linksys router it did the same thing but never worked for me it did it as soon as i hooked it up and got it ready. Now i know i'm hoookin everything up right, and I called my DSL provider and they checked my connection and said it was perfectly fine I dont understand wat the problem is and i really wish someone could help....Thankyou

And What are those exactly suppose to do lol??

NemesisDB · Answer

maybe help, maybe not.  the MS patch updates how windows controlls the connection.  The drivers update how your system controlls the wireless card.   it's certainly a first step to try and see if the problem goes away
