Good morning.
Hopefully someone will be able to help me with this problem. I apologise if it has appeared previously, I did do a search without success.
Virgin have kindly given me a new DLink (DIR-615) router. I have Virgin cabled broadband. We have a wireless network which has a static main computer, a Dell Inspiron laptop and a couple of Playstation3’s.
I have had no problems setting the network up. I have secured it with WPA2-PSK.
The two Playstation’s connect to the network, no problem.
The laptop can see the network, it connects ok, but 3 minutes in, it kicks us out. Whilst we are connected we can use the shared internet connection.
There are two network icons in the taskbar. One says we are connected, the other says status “Authenticating”.
I looked at the “diagnostics log”. It seems to connect to the network for a few minutes, then disconnects itself again. I am work at the moment and I can’t remember the exact details. I did save a copy of the log, but I forgot to email it to work.
Hopefully someone will have come across the problem before, and will be able to help.
Sorry if the information is a bit vague.
Many thanks
