    Hi,

    I seem to have an intermittent problem.

    The wireless connection to the web "sometimes" connects - but the majority of the time, (recently anyway), it doesn't establish a session.

    The orange led comes on when wireless is turned on and I'm getting maximum signal strentgh. Just not connecting.

    It's a LINUX 120 GB model.

    Do I need to hack any settings - I recall this is a common problem ?

    I've heard that the bios may need updating on the WiF, Atheros, but I'm not sure where to do this or if it is windows or linux dependant.
