I have a new Toshiba Sattelite M60 Notebook. I love it to death, but the wireless is acting crazy.

It was able to connect, and worked perfectly for the first couple of weeks, then the connection got a little hit and miss, and now the wireless refuses to stay connected for more than two seconds at a time.

My father has tried everything to no avail, and I have all bt given up hope. Is there anything you can do? Any suggestions or solutions?

I appreciate the help, but inevitably went back into the router set-up and reset all the information, and set a channel for the router. I reset the information and channel on my laptop as well and now everything is hunky dory, as a matter of fact I write this from my laptop. I do appreciate your timely responce. I know where I'm coming for tech support from now on.
