Dear John, if you are asking ping results, yes there are %100 packets
loss. That's why my wireless internet connection freezes. When i do
''ping 192.168.1.1'' i receive , error message: ''request timed out''.
That's a very normal message for a not working internet connection as
you know.

I have no grudge about sending details because there are so much
details about that problem, the only solid data for this problem is
''request timed out'' and that error message shows the result. It does
not help for the problem i think.

I also turned McAfee off but i think that didn't help. But i am not
sure its McAfee's behaviour (i stronly don't suppose)

Here are results of ipconfig for a working wireless connection, but as
i mentioned previously, these values are the same if freeze occurs:

Windows IP Configuration

Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : acer
Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . :
Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Unknown
IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No

Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.11
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 193.140.83.251

Is that all what you want?

To explain better, when the freeze occurs, Internet Explorer opens
fine but cannot open page ''this page cannot be displayed'' as well.

The wi-fi data transfer indicator which is on the Windows taskbar,
stops flashing, because data transfer stops, freezes and never lights
up until i click ''repair'' or ''re-enabling wi-fi adapter'' as i
said.
