Intermittent Network Connectivity


I'm having some network problems. I can connect to all secured networks without any problems, and most unsecured. I have MAJOR problems at school. There is school-wide unsecured WiFi that you login to through the browser and it connects without any problems, but it doesn't stay connected. I constantly drop the connection. As long as I have it selected to auto connect it will reconnect within a few seconds but it makes it VERY difficult to do online assignments that require a constant internet connection. I'm not sure if it's my computer or if it's the schools internet because I rarely connect to unsecured networks. Does anyone have any idea where I should start so I can try and solve this problem?

Thanks,

Ryan

Don't use auto connection because it will select best one for you. Focus on particular AP you think it is good.
