您的笔记本电脑是否会无缘无故地掉线或失去无线连接？(wireless connection)或者您的笔记本电脑可以看到无线接入点(access point)，但除非您重新启动整个计算机，否则无法连接？
这些是我自己遇到的一些问题，所以这里有一个快速而肮脏的指南，可以在Windows XP中对(Windows XP)无线网络(wireless network)进行故障排除，而无需外出购买新路由器！Windows 8/10中解决 Wi-Fi 问题的最新文章。
首先，更常见的无线问题(wireless issue)是计算机会不断地从WiFi 网络(WiFi network)中掉线 ，然后突然无缘无故地重新连接。
这类问题背后的罪魁祸首通常是软件，而不是硬件。我说的软件不是你的Windows操作系统(Windows operating)，而是你的无线网卡(wireless network card)和无线路由器(wireless router)的设备驱动。
(Troubleshoot Wireless Connection)Windows XP中的无线连接疑难解答
您需要访问适用于您 PC的硬件制造商的(hardware manufacturer)网站并下载最新的驱动程序。(web site)因此，如果您有戴尔(Dell)，请访问 support.dell.com，找到您的型号并下载无线网卡的驱动程序。
同样的事情也适用于您的路由器：访问D-Link、Netgear或Linksys(Linksys web)网站并为路由器安装最新固件。如果连接断开，您可以阅读我之前写的关于更新无线网卡驱动程序的文章。
这通常会解决连接被丢弃的任何问题！如果您一开始就遇到连接问题，您可能想尝试在Windows中重置当前配置，然后尝试连接。
您可以通过首先进入控制面板(Control Panel )并单击网络连接(Network Connections)来执行此操作。
您将获得计算机上所有当前连接的列表，例如蓝牙、无线、局域网连接(area connection)等。继续并右键单击您的无线网络连接(wireless network connection)并选择Properties。
单击无线网络(Wireless Networks) 选项卡，然后单击(tab and click)首选网络(Preferred networks)列表中的网络名称。现在您要单击“删除(Remove)” ，以便Windows删除该网络的任何当前设置并从头开始。
很多时候，当您再次刷新网络列表时，Windows会自动连接。继续并单击确定，然后单击任务栏中的无线网络图标(wireless network icon)并尝试再次连接。
如果这不起作用，您也可以尝试修复(Repair)无线连接。修复选项(Repair option)会尝试其他一些操作，例如禁用和重新启用无线网卡(wireless card)，清除旧记录的DNS 缓存(DNS cache)，然后连接到无线网络(wireless network)。
您可以通过如下所示的网络连接(Network Connections)并右键单击无线连接并选择修复来进行(wireless connection and choosing) 修复(Repair)。我的图像显示 Local Area Connection ，但如果您的计算机有无线网卡 ，您应该会看到Wireless Network Connection 。
最后，检查网络连接的(network connection)TCP/IP属性以确保它们配置正确是个好主意。很多时候，人们手动更改它们，或者在客户支持(customer support)电话中被计算机(computer help)服务台 人员告知更改它们。
要检查设置，请转到上面提到的网络连接(Network Connections)，然后右键单击网络连接(network connection)并选择属性(Properties)。
现在在列表框中选择Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)并单击Properties。您需要确保选中自动获取 IP 地址(Obtain an IP address automatically)和自动获取 DNS 服务器地址(Obtain DNS server address automatically)单选按钮。
在某些情况下，必须手动输入IP 地址和 DNS 服务器地址，但这种情况很少见，在家庭环境中通常不会出现这种情况。(IP address and DNS server addresses)
因此，如果更新驱动程序、重置配置和修复网络连接不起作用，请尝试拔下无线路由器并(wireless router and plug)在大约一分钟后重新插入。最好也关闭电缆调制解调器(cable modem)，但您应该始终先打开调制解调器，然后再打开路由器。
除非路由器出现物理问题，否则上述方法之一应该可以工作！如果您在Windows XP中仍然遇到网络连接(network connection)问题，请发表评论，我们会尽力提供帮助。享受！
Troubleshoot Windows XP Wireless Network Connection Problems
Does your laptop keep dropping or losing its wireless conneсtion for no reason? Or maybe your laptop can see thе wireless access point, but won’t connect unless you restart the entire computer?
These are some of the problems that I’ve had myself and so here is a quick and dirty guide to troubleshooting your wireless network in Windows XP without having to go out and buy a new router! I also wrote a more recent post on troubleshooting Wi-Fi problems in Windows 8/10.
Firstly, the more common wireless issue is when the computer will continuously drop from the WiFi network and then suddenly reconnect for no apparent reason.
The main culprit behind this type of problem is usually software, not hardware. By software, I don’t mean your Windows operating system, but the device drivers for your wireless network card and your wireless router.
Troubleshoot Wireless Connection in Windows XP
You’ll need to visit the web site for the hardware manufacturer for your PC and download the latest drivers. So if you have a Dell, go to support.dell.com, find your model and download the driver for the wireless card.
Same thing applies to your router: go to D-Link, Netgear, or the Linksys web site and install the latest firmware for the router. You can read a previous article I had written about updating drivers for your wireless card if the connection is dropping.
That will usually fix any problems with the connection being dropped! If you’re having problems connecting in the first place, you might want to try resetting the current configuration in Windows and then try to connect.
You can do this by first going to the Control Panel and clicking on Network Connections.
You’ll get a list of all the current connections on your computer, such as bluetooth, wireless, local area connection, etc. Go ahead and right-click on your wireless network connection and choose Properties.
Click on the Wireless Networks tab and click on the name of the network in the list of Preferred networks. Now you want to click Remove so that Windows will erase any of the current settings for that network and will start from scratch.
A lot of times when you refresh the list of networks again, Windows will automatically connect. Go ahead and click OK and then click on the wireless network icon in your taskbar and try to connect again.
If that does not work, you can also try to Repair the wireless connection. The Repair option tries a few other things, such as disabling and re-enabling the wireless card, clearing out the DNS cache of old records, and then connecting to the wireless network.
You can do a repair by going to Network Connections as shown below and right-clicking the wireless connection and choosing Repair. My image is showing Local Area Connection, but you should see Wireless Network Connection if your computer has a wireless card.
Finally, it’s a good idea to check the TCP/IP properties of your network connection to make sure they are configured properly. A lot of times people manually change them or are told to change them by computer help desk folks on customer support calls.
To check the settings, go to Network Connections like mentioned above and then right-click on the network connection and choose Properties.
Now select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the list box and click on Properties. You’ll want to make sure that the Obtain an IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically radio buttons are selected.
There are cases where the IP address and DNS server addresses have to be manually entered, but that is rare and usually not the case in home environments.
So if updating the driver, resetting the configuration, and repairing the network connection don’t work, try to unplug the wireless router and plug it back in after about a minute. It’s best to turn off the cable modem too, but you should always turn on the modem first, then the router.
Unless there is something physically wrong with the router, one of the methods above should work! If you’re still have trouble with a network connection in Windows XP, post a comment and we’ll try to help. Enjoy!
