I just recently purchased the all new Toshiba Tecra 4M with integrated

every once in a while but more frequently with large amounts of data
transfer, almost as if resetting after a certain amount of traffic. At
home, I have to 'repair' the connection to reconnect. As soon as I do
so, I reconnect with no problem but it's annoying to have to do so. At
work, it will seemingly reconnect on it's own, but there is still the
interuption. The only difference between the two networks is that at
home I've only allowed specific mac addresses. How on earth can I
figure out why my wireless is dropping every so often?


Could be a whole lotta things. Try a couple simple things first.

1. Set your laptop to only connect to preferred networks.

2. Trying changing channels on the router.

Worked for me after a neighbor installed a home network with the same router on the same channel as my home netwotk.
