In a vain attempt to solve the computer problems of one of my relatives, I've acquired an Acer Aspire Revo, a new ISP and a Thompson 585 v7 Wireless router. The only problem is that the Revo (which has a built-in wireless adapter) refuses to connect to the router wirelessly. It can find the router, but when I try to connect it just disappears and the pc can't find any networks at all until a few minutes later when it magically reapperas. This happens repeatedly (I tried about 5 or 6 times before giving up).
I'm pretty sure it's not the router causing it, since I can connect to it from my phone and browse the forums whilst sat in front of the computer. It also worked when I connected physically from a laptop.
I'm going back over in a bit to have another crack with the laptop again so I can check that it can connect wirelessly. I'm also going to move the pc and connect that physically to check that works too.
Suggestions of other configurations I should try or any possible solutions would be appreciated
