[Hidden-tech] Wireless connection problems

[Jonathan Hohl]

Claudia,

Unfortunately, I don't have much to offer you but one suggestion. While you 
may have tried it, or it may not be applicable, this little trick has --  
sometimes inexplicably -- worked for me in the past. Go to your NETWORK 
CONNECTIONS folder and right click on your wireless, DISABLE it. After a 
moment, right-click and ENABLE it.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Hohl
