Wireless Connection Problems...

Question

My girlfriend and I have the same computers (Inspiron E1405) with windows XP. Her's connects to the wireless just fine, while mine will not. On my computer Intel PROSet/Wireless says it has an excellent connection, but the wireless network connection says that I have low signal strength. The two computers can be side-by-side and my internet will not work while her's does. What can I do? Any help is appreciated.

Open the Mini Card door on the bottom of the computer and check to see if the wireless adapter is firmly seated in the slot and that the antenna wires are securely connected.  See the following:   https://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins640m/en/SM/cards.htm#wp1009645   Steve

Also, check to see if you've got the most recent driver file loaded for your wireless card?
