    I am haveing a similar problem where my wireless will work sometimes and sometimes not, you will be surfing and it will just time out, and nothing will make it work, no matter what site you try to go to.  Some times restarting the computer will help other times it wont.  I can look at the connectivity box at the bottom of the screen and it will be 4 out of 5 bars, and if is very frustrating!  My wireless card is  WIRELESS MINICARD DW1490, BROADCOM CORPORATION.  Any help would be great thanks!

    I just tried it last night, and it said that my software was up to date, I did the auto internet search for it.  So I went online and with in 5 mins it went out again, with the wireless box still showing good reception.  I closed i.e. and tried to restart it with no luck, and then I just shut it down for the night!GGGRRRRR...
