Always Repairing Wireless Connection (Intel Wireless 3945ABG - Win XP)

I find that I always have to right click and repair my wireless connection. This never happened before up until about a month ago, it happens about every 20 minutes and it's very annoying.

Sometimes I login to windows and the wireless network connection doesnt even show up and I have to reinstall it. Any ideas?

Here are my specs:

Driver version: 13.0.0.107

Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection

Windows XP Pro SP3

Dell Inspiron 1720

I used the Intel Driver Update Utility and I am having the SAME problem!

I have:

Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection

Current Intel® PROSet/Wireless WiFi Connection Utility Installed 12.4.4.0

There HAS to be a solution!!!

I FOUND THE SOLUTION:

I went to te store and asked to try a new Intel Wireless 3945ABG card.

Put it in and it has worked ever since, so try that, if it doesnt work at the store, then dont buy it, define another problem / issue

(I thought it might have been the wires inside the computer, that run thru the monitor and other places.)

Anyway, give it a try people, hope that helps.

Is there a specific store? I tried searching for it online on bestbuy, but they apparently ain't selling them.

Is it a specific store? I checked Best Buy's website, and they don't seem to sell it.
