The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Wireless network takes too much time to connect

Asked by ffrllc in Wireless Technologies, Network Management, Networking Hardware

Tags: connect, wireless, takes, time, network

I have a Dell Insprion 1520 laptop with a 802.11n wirless card. I also use a dlink 802.11.n wireless router ("DIR-625 RangeBooster").

When I start my laptop it will usually take 10-15 minutes (or more) before it will establish a connection to my wirless network. Once the connection is established the connection is very solid and stable. As long as I leave my laptop on my connection will remain solid (even for days).

The only problem I run into is that it takes soo long to connect when I start my laptop up for the first time.

I've tried both Dell and Dlink support, but neither have been very helpful. They will assist me in establishing a connection, but not actually solving the problem from happening again.

Any idea why it is taking so long to connect at start up?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
