WLAN connection is very weak

If the connection is very weak, or if your computer cannot make a connection to a WLAN, minimize interference from other devices, as follows:

●Move your computer closer to the wireless router or access point.

●Temporarily disconnect devices such as a microwave, cordless phone, or cellular phone to be sure that other wireless devices are not interfering.

If the connection does not improve, try forcing the device to reestablish all connection values:

1.Select Start > Network > Network and Sharing Center > Manage wireless networks.

A list showing the available WLANs is displayed. If you are in a hotspot where several WLANs are active, several will be displayed.

2.Right-click a network, and then click Remove network.
