I installed a wireless card (MicroNet brand - cheap) into my parent's pc a few months ago, it has been fine since but has been patchy - sometimes it would not connect and others it would. There is nothing that could be interfering with the wireless signal. As I said, in the past sometimes it would work and others not.

More recently it wouldn't connect at all, so I reinstalled the drivers. Now it HARDLY connects. Today it has done for a short time, enough for my father to get on google and search for autotrader, then it stopped working.

Any help at all gladly appreciated, it's driving them mad and m too because I'm meant to be "the expert"!!

Thanks

This issue happening with any other wireless devices in your network?

nope, my brother's laptop always connects and is very stable.

Yep, that would be my analysis too. Try another wireless card (decent make/model) in the computer and see if the problem continues.

thanks, any recommendations?

One with good reviews perhaps? I seem to have good luck with both Netgear and D-Link, also TP-Link and also an ASUS wireless card once. All work reasonably well.
