    Hello

    I have a neatgear wireless router and my 2 laptop computers cannot connect. Its been work fine for almost 2years now with no problem.

    I tried repiaring the connection and the laptop connects for 1minute and it disconnects again. The wireless signal is on the router.

    I can connect via RJ45 cable.

    Any ideas to fix it or do I need to buy a new router.

    If you have been connecting successfully for 2 years and now you can't and haven't changed anything my guess would be the Netgear is toast if a reboot won't fix it.

    Or...if did not use wifi security then someone (neighbor) could have accessed the Netgear and implemented security, or changed the password.

    If someone changed it, press the reset button and start over.
