Asus EEE 1000HE Wireless weirdness

Hey, everyone,

I've been surfing the internet fine as long as I'm consistent with the location, that is school and home. At school it says it can't connect then I do the troubleshooting and it works afterward. After shutdown it works fine on other locations, as long as it's at school. However if I were to try to use it at home after using it at school, there's a connection problem and I have to reset the router for it to work wirelessly. I don't want to use the wire because it's so inconvenient. Eventually after trying the troubleshooting trick, it works at home as well, but it takes significantly longer. I've made sure both settings for the two networks match perfectly, but I thought it could have been due to the driver. Still wasn't, so if you've got any ideas, please let me know =)

 

It sounds like the Wireless Properties, after troubleshooting, maybe set your current location as automatic? Look there and try to remove the auto setting if that's in place - this should then require you to R click on available networks when you change locations, and then log you in automatically without having to troubleshoot. You shouldn't need to do anything with the router in this scenario.

This might explain why you have to go through the process and then it works fine.

 

That actually makes sense, thanks! I'll test it out and repost if it still doesn't work. But for now I hope it has resolved all its issues =D Have a great Christmas and a Happy New year!
