Odd wireless problem, getting dropped randomly.

my guess is the mac address for the card is being associated with the computer name of the other computer that used it to connect the day before...i recall this from when i was using my wireless usb adapter on my laptop. I couldnt get it to stay connected....easy solution is you could assign a static IP address to that mac on the wireless card....then just manually set the settings on the computers TCP/IP properties....I do this with my home network and the wireless devices connect so much faster now....also as a side note with that USB wireless, when I was using DHCP to assign the IP, it would give me problems and not connect....static took care of that though :)
