I have a a Netgear MR314 access point and a Toshiba Satellite Pro with integrated 802.11b. Everything works fine for a period of time (which various from 15 min to 1 hour) then I lose my connection and my laptop cannot find the wireless network.

It does not seem to mater how close the laptop is to the access point. I also tried another laptop and the same thing happened.

Any suggestions?

I have the same Netgear MR314. Have you gone to their site and downloaded the flash upgrade for the MR314, then let it powercycle and you should be fine...

I had the same problem as you and that took care of it for me...In fact I just got home from work and am typing this from the laptop with no problems at all and it has been upgraded for 2 and 1/2 days.

If that doesn't work, which it should, you can always try to just let it and your cablemodem powercycle.
