'Repair' work-around for Limited Users...

If you boot up an XP PC and find the Wireless Network doesn't always connect, this is the first thing you should try before rebooting the Modem/Router or Hub.

If you disconnect and reconnect randomly, stay tuned for the next vid'.

"Do you sometimes boot up your PC and notice that your Wireless Network Connection isn't connecting?

Simply right-click the icon in the system tray and select 'Repair'.

If you are using a Limited User Account, 'Repair' will be greyed-out. In this case, click 'View Available Wireless Networks'.

Now select, "Change Advanced Settings".

It will warn you that some of the settings are disabled, because you are not logged on, as the Administrator. This is OK, we can still Repair. Just click 'OK' and then the 'Wireless Network' Tab. Change any setting you like. Then change the same setting back.

For example, we will un-tick the first box and then tick it again. Now click 'OK' and it will automaticaly save the same settings and try to connect as if you had clicked 'Repair'.

Bye for now."
