Have never used a wired connection on the laptop, always wireless.

Hi, .

Thanks for the reply, it doesn't seem to go away for me, and the only real time it's affecting me is when i first turn the laptop on, as it doesn't connect so i have to switch off wireless button etc and get it to connect even though nothing on the lappy says it's connected!
