I'm on the business laptop right now. My hotspot is downstairs, I"m upstairs. I use WPA1 Encryption plus MAC adress filtering to only allow my home PC's mac addresses.

When using GAIM or any messenger I am frequenty disconected every now and then is this common for wireless networks.
 
same, the internet doesn't go out nore does the radio streams I listen to break up it's just messenger.


Also what do I need to do to push my "fancy stuff's" level up one to WPA2 encryption, my router supports it but my laptop will refuse to connect with that form of encryption. Is a firmware upgrade needed?
 
In addition to the update for Windows XP SP2, you need two components:

• A router or access point that supports WPA2-Personal

• A wireless card with firmware and drivers that support WPA2-Personal
