    That's OK. Knowledge is power. Knowledge is often transferable or adaptable to other scenarios... you can never have too much. It's excellent to see this interaction between Alienware and its customers.

    No doubt, I totally agree with that. I love to see Dell or alienware reps on this forum. The more the merrier! :D

    of the above i noted some interesting tips for wireless problems. Such as "Set Power save polling (PSP) to Continuously Aware Mode (Note: Battery life can decrease more rapidly if not connected to a power source.)"
    ive had recent connection problems on wireless despite being in good range of the router. This is very useful info :)
