Hi
We have installed LL on a new (1TB) HDD in a Compaq Presario sr5412de desktop, it has 4gb ram and (I think) a dual core 1.8 cpu.
The LL install went without incident and all updates were loaded while it was online via cable.
I plugged in an Edimax EW-7811un USB WIFI and established a connection to our Netgear R6520 router, I didn't test it beyond checking if it can go online.
I then moved the computer to its workstation which is less than 10m line of sight from the router.
Unfortunately I have found the WIFI drops out randomly and doesn't automatically restart. The only way to reconnect is to manually disconnected and then reconnect or restart the computer. There doesn't appear to be a pattern associated with the WIFI failures.
I think the problem doesnt rest with the router because we also have an Easybox router running in the same area, switching the WIFI to the Easybox doesn't change the connect-fail problem.
Any suggestions appreciated;
Thanks.
