    Very odd. Another idea (if you still want to play with it) is to try another router. If it works, keep it. If not, return it.

    Dang, I thought I had fixed it, but now i'm still having big reliability issues with the wireless desktop. The part that is confusing is all the other wireless devices are working just fine. The Netbook is wireless B, G, N, and so too is the router. So too is the desktop. I suspect it's a setting issue or a driver issue, but for the life of me can't figure out what it is. I'm thinking of just doing a wipe and restore for starters. Failing that, I may try another network card.

    At least you didn't say you need a new wife since the problem stems from her computer.

    Clay, just curious if you have tried two things.
    1) a hard reset of the router
    2) if that doesn't work, possibly updating the router firmware.
    3) Does the same thing happen if both boxes are plugged in via wire? I know that won't necessarily solve the problem, but may help in identifying the source of the issue.
