TP Link Wireless Adaptor (PC Card)

msaquib

Hi,

I recently bought TP Link wireless adaptor. I connected it to Orange livebox and it worked fine. I found out that there were 3 other routers showing up. One of them was Belkin and it was showing as unsecured connection. I firstly connected to Belkin router by mistake but the connection was very low. I then entered the WEP key and connected to Orange Livebox.

Now the problem started with I restarted my laptop. Whenever I restart, my wireless connection automatically goes onto Belkin router. I then have manually enter the WEP and connect to Livebox.

It became more worse - The connection is lost every 5 minutes and then it goes automatically to Belkin.

Anyone else had this problem? Any idea how can I sort this out?

Thanks for your help.

Try right clicking on your wireless network icon, View available wireless networks, Change advanced settings, Wireless networks, Highlight your SSID, Properties, Connection. Check "Connect when this network is in range". Click OK, Advanced, Make sure "Access Point (Infrastructure) Networks only" is selected, and "Automatically connect to non-preferred networks" is unchecked. You really should change your SSID to something different from the default and use WPA-PSK encryption as WEP is very insecure in comparison.

espresso,

I have checked in advence setting and my connection is already showing as "Access Point (Infrastructure) Networks only" and "Automatically connect to non-preferred networks" is unchecked.

Whenever I enter my WEP key, it connects to livebox but the connection drop the next minute. What should I do know?
