    Ive had 3 of these laptops and this is the only one that is giving me issues when connecting to the wireless network. Should I try reinstalling the driver? Is there an updated driver? I saw HP has some sort of utility they offer on thier site... would that help? It doesnt seem to want to connect all the time and when it does sometimes it still doesnt work. Then sometimes it works just fine.

    I found a newer driver and still the same problems. Ive been having problems with this from day one and now that I have it part of my companies domain it almost seems worse but im not sure. I have it right beside the wireless router and still I see it go from 54mg down to 36 and back up... then drop the connection. Most of the websites I try to go to all I see is it trying to detect the proxy... very annoying.
