I have a longstanding Wifi network with two Win XP machines, a Wifi Printer, and a Tivo on it. Everything works well till I start up the Win 7 laptop. Then the other network assets stop responding, the router stops showing them as IP clients, etc... In short they all cease to work. The Win 7 computer also has significant connection problems. It keeps changing the network ID and location and can't stay connected for more than a few seconds at a time. The network works OK if I shut down the radio and hardwire the Win 7 computer to the router. The network componants often need to be restarted as well before the network regains full capabilities.It seams as if the Win 7 laptop is causing a data collision in the Wifi network. How can I verify, and most importantly correct this? 1 person needs an answerI do too

HiWhat the wifi printer is connected to?Try to switch off the Printer and see if the Laptop works when the printer is off.Try the same with other Wireless Network devices (if you have more of them). Jack-MVP Windows Networking. WWW.EZLAN.NET
