Wireless disconnects ever 3 minutes

I'm connected to my wireless network on my laptop, but the internal wireless card disconnects ever 3-5 minutes. All I have to do to re-connect it is to click on the icon in the system tray and then click 'connect'. But this is a REAL annoyance. How can I fix this?

    Is your wireless router broadcasting the SSID? If not then the bottom half of this page concerning the SSID may apply to your setup.

    Do u have XP with SP2 installed? If yes, then this could be the cause : SP2 has it's own wireless tool which is problably conflicting with the tool which came with ur wireless card (dell/intel etc). Disable either of them i.e. keep only 1 active.

    Hope that helps..

    You can also set up your card to connect to yoru network automatically without you having to connect it manually.
