    does anyone else have serious problems with it? it frequently disconnects, has slow transfer speeds, and it seems to have a bad range. unfortunately I can't find my old USB n dongle to plug in, so I'm wondering if there is a fix for the dv6 wifi that I am unaware of

    What kind of router do you have and how old is it? I used to have this problem because my router was dying...

    i have a dlink dir-655 that i've used for over a 2 years, but it works with every other computer i have. the laptop's wifi card also has problems with other networks as well, so it isn't my router
