As soon as the network was re-established the internet was...

Can anyone suggest what I need to check? Richard

WiFi, for some reason, is really unstable, even though the laptops have been perfect with it for the last 2 years. Anyway, what kit do I need to look for in particular, and what limitations have people found with it? I'm only after a pair of adapters for the moment, with...

Who do I call to get...
