I recently replaced my laptop and have been having problems with the wireless connection at the local library. Up until last week the wireless was able to connect and only occasionally have the problem with the dns server. Usually running the diagnose option would eventually resolve the problem with the wireless card being reset. The past week though it never seems to reset at all and even when I do connect its really slow. Anyways here the diagnoses details.
