Default Internet Problems   #1  
Okay all wired computers are fine btw.

But my laptop, ever since the power went out one day, has been getting less signal, and in the evenings/nights, the internet will go out altogether, but if I leave it alone, it will come back (and go out again and come back again etc).

What would be causing this?

Note: I do not know if it is just my laptop or all wireless, like PS3 or my iPod

Find out if it affects other devices. That's an important troubleshooting step.

Do you live in a house or an apartment?

I live in a house, and it doesn't seem to be affecting anything else (though my mom did say one night she had the same problem with her laptop)

I deleted the connection and readded it, since then it hasn't disconnected... -has probably just jinxed self- though sometimes it acts like it's cutting off, but it just goes slow instead .-. (My mother doesn't use her laptop everyday so I can't know if it's been messing up since)

Random: Also when I see those gold grants from posts...I keep freaking out and think it's a glitch...until I remember it isn't XD

Edit: Also, it randomly will ask for an authentication key, putting in the password will not get it to reconnect. Ever. Though restarting works.

Question: Does anyone know how to see what kernel I ahve for linux?

At least then I can try to see if it's a driver problem or not.

You are connecting through wi-fi right? Well maybe you are further away from the modem when you have the problems?

Issue the command "uname -a" and it'll give you the kernel information.

No, I do not move my laptop. It stays in one spot constantly. And I am within 10-15 feet of the modem. Though there is a wall or two in the way.

I did find out the kernel, but then the driver download wouldn't work D:

I still have the problem, it just hasn't been as bad since I did few things.

My internet is so slow, and I don't like it one bit.
