Low signal on my network card.

I got windows vista with a "Intel 3945ABG PRO/Wireless Network Adapter". My laptop is about 20 feet from my router and the signal strength is about 50-60%. My playstation 3's signal is 100% fromt he same distance. I also tryed my second laptop with a "LAN-Express AS IEEE 802.11g miniPCI Adapter" on Windows Xp. and the signal is also 100%.

The laptop with Windows Vista is about a month old and the Xp laptop is about 2 years old. What's the problem?

btw, I got a linksys wireless router.

Hi,

Welcome to TSF.

It could be that there is a hardware issus with the Wirelss card. as you laptop is not that old contact the retailer and they should give you a replacement.

Have a nice day,

Jay.
