I got a new laptop form work with the intel centrino chip in it.
When I first brought it home, it wouldn't connect at all.
After about a week it started connecting, and life was good.
Now it's connecting but won't receive any packets.

My girlfriend got a similar computer with the same centrino chip and hasn't had any problems with it.

I have no idea what would cause my computer to be so tempermental, but any ideas as to why this is happening and how to fix it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
