    Maybe it is the router? About a month ago I had to replace mine because
    it completely lost the ability to do wireless (the 4-port ethernet
    section still worked).

    Just out of curiosity, did you get the 7200 RPM HD upgrade? That makes
    things run faster, especially doing compiles/etc.

    Ok, even more strange. I am visiting my friend now - and it works ok
    on his network (he has a different router model). I guess I'll try
    different settings for the Network Interference robustness when I get
    back home.
