Good morning,
I Recently I purchased a laptop, but have problems when trying to connect to the WLAN in my house. The WLAN card is a RALink 2500, I've looked through all the settings and can notice nothing wrong, as I write this I am connected whilst sitting next to the Router but getting no signal (I'm writing this by using a regular wired connection).
Strangely the other day when I was playing around with the WLAN cards region code, and after restarting it connected, so I had good use of it that night. But when I started up my laptop the next morning it couldn't see the router at all, and this has been the case ever since.
I have tried the following :
# Updating the drivers.
# Reinstalling the card completely.
The thing I believe is the source of the problem is that the status of the link is currently showing 'RF OFF', I believe that has something to do with the cards 'Radio Frequency', wonder if any of you can clear that up. I'm on Windows XP if that helps.
The router is set to broadcast its SSID, and I have 3 other desktops connected through it so I know the router is working fine. I'll keep playing around with the settings and keep you posted.
Hope you guys can help!
Regards,
Thom.
