Can't Connect To Wireless in a Coffee Shop
I purchased a new HP Laptop dv9700t recently.
Configuration is below: - HP Pavilion dv9700t Entertainment CTO NB - Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit) - Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo Processor T9300 (2.50 GHz, 6 MB L2 Cache, 800MHz FSB) - 17.0" WSXGA+ High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display (1680 x 1050) - 3GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm) - 50% OFF 512MB NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GS!! - FREE Upgrade to HP Imprint (Radiance) + Fingerprint Reader + Webcam + Microphone - Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 4965AGN Network Connection and Bluetooth(TM) - 240GB 7200RPM SATA Dual Hard Drive (120GB x 2) - LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-RW with Double Layer Support - No TV Tuner w/remote control - High Capacity 8 Cell Lithium Ion Battery - System Recovery DVD with Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit) - Microsoft(R) Works 9.0 I was able to connect to both my home and office wireless conections with no difficulty. I went to my favorite coffee shop and couldn't connect. There was someone else there with a laptop and he was able to connect. No passcode is required and the signal is full bars. Two weeks ago (before I had this computer) I had another new HP dv6700tse laptop (that I returned) and I was able to connect easily at this same coffee shop many times. Anyone have any idea why I can't connect with this new machine (which should have similiar components) and what can I do to remedy the problem? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Canyon |

Re: Can't Connect To Wireless in a Coffee Shop
I would try to un-install the wireless network card drivers and re-install an updated version. Check out HP's website and see if there is updated wireless driver version.
