Wireless Disabled Automatically

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry




Hi. I am using Acer Apsire 5562 running Windows XP service pack 3. I am
having a problem with my wireless network. When I start up my laptop,
the wireless connection works fine for a few minutes. Later it just
disappeared. When I go to network connections, the icon for wireless
network connection says it is disabled. I tried enabling it, but it
doesn't work.

I am not sure if it is a hardware problem or a software problem. When I
checked the hardware, it says it is working normally, so I assume the
software may be at fault.

Anyone out there have any solutions?
First, for why it is disabled automatically?
Second, why can't it be enabled again afterwards?

Thanks
