How can I stop my pc from losing the connection to my wireless router?

Forum Wireless Networking : Range & Connectivity How can I stop my pc from losing the connection to my wireless router?

Hello,
When using my pc through my wireless Netgear router, the connection is lost periodically and I get the message "default gateway not accessible". It only happens on my PC, and not on my IPad. What should I do to keep the connection on my PC?

I had this problem when i used wifi on my pc, it is a very annoying message and eventually i had to resort to moving my computer out from under my desk. The problem for me was that the ariel was being blocked as the pc was backed against the wall. Another solution would be to buy an wifi booster, there are many to choose from i have linked one below which is a resonable price.

Or the other free way of doing it would be to move your router closer to where you pc is situated.

I hope i have helped
