I guess I forgot to mention that. I used the same card in all 3 laptop's. I downloaded the driver for the card on both of their laptops and it worked great when I was in the same room but if I went more than about 15 feet away it lost the connection. Could it be the hardware with the compaq?

I wonder if Tom could step in and answer that question.
