    I have one year old nx6310 (celeron). Since past few weeks, my wireless network gets disconnected very frequently and some times it does not work unless I reboot the system.

    To ensure its not a problem with OS, I did a clean install of Vista and XP and problem persisted in both OS. I have other two laptops on the same network, they never get disconnected.

    Does this means my wireless card is giving issues after 1+ years of faithful service?

    If install PCMCIA wireless card will this problem get resolved? and which is the better card in the market, in case I have to go via this route

    What Wireless are you using. Maybe you should update the drivers.
