Problem with wireless zero configuration
I have an IBM thinkpad t41. For sometime now I have been having problems with keeping the wireless connected to the network at home, at work, basically anywhere. I have tried moving routers, switching routers, all areas of my house. The wireless connection will connect but then every few minutes it will go out and then reconnect after a bit. The only solution I have found that works is when I get the connection manually disable the wireless zero configuration, then when I am moving to a new network re-enable the wzc. This is kind of annoying since I move between home and work often. Hopefully there is a better solution than this. I have tried reinstalling the drivers etc, but no luck. Open to any suggestions. Thanks.

I actually had the access connections uninstalled previously. I tried reinstalling because you had mentioned in the previous post that this is how you got it to work also. However the access connections cannot find a signal. In my home there is only one choice of my home network. I never even catch my neighbor's signal. I tried uninstalling the access connections but i am now back at square one with wireless zero config.

At home the router is set to broadcast and the firm ware has been upgraded, at work I am not sure, but my problem seems to be with the laptop since that is the aspect that always has the same problem regardless of location.
You have done the things that would be done to fix wireless (and I do these things on IBM laptops), so the next step may be to rebuild the OS on your machine. If you go to that trouble, consider using the IBM Atheros card for that computer as it works very well.
