Problem with the Wi-Fi on my Sony Vaio laptop?
I'm having problems with the Wi-Fi on my Sony vaio FW56. I'm a student in a house with 4 others all of whom use Wi-Fi on their computers none of which is having any problems. The house Wi-Fi works fine on my iPhone as well but my laptop has trouble finding our network and when it does the connection and signal strengths varies considerably despite remaining in the same place in my room all the time.
Anyone had similar issues with this model of laptop? Or any advice in general welcome. At the moment I have troubling downloading even the most basic of pages let alone streaming video on bbc iplayer/4OD etc (impossible to do with my Wi-Fi problem).
Here is a link on how to improve your Wi-Fi signal

Try turning the laptop around so the built in aerial has fewer obstructions between it and the router
- Windows 7 laptop wireless connection problem I restored my computer a day ago because it was bringing the blue screen of death. After the restore, when I logged on and tried to connect to the internet it says no network connection. "The laptop will access the internet with a wired connection only. It now indicates there are no wireless networks to join even though" there's a modem in my house which i can connect to through my iphone.
- Wi-Fi Disabled on Sony Vaio? All of the wireless connections on my Sony Vaio laptop are disabled. It will not recognize any connections. It says there aren't any available. There are connections available because I'm using my Wi-Fi connection on my Apple TV and iPhone. I have turned on the switch on the computer to enable the Wi-Fi but it won't work. The network adapter is also enabled.
- Which Camera to Buy: Sony WX350 or Sony WX220? I'm looking to purchase a camera for my upcoming vacation. I currently use my iPhone 6 to take all my photos and want something a little better. I have done some research and it seems like Sony makes pretty good cameras. The most important factors to me are image quality and price. I'm looking to spend $220 max. Please let me know which of the two you would recommend, unless you there's something else better.
- Sony Vaio won't pick up Wi-Fi? My sony vaio laptop, which is less than 3 months old is not finding any Wi-Fi networks, but I have a hotspot from AT&T and my home router that my iphone picks up both. I can't get internet unless I turn on my phone hotspot and plug it in, so it acts like a hardware connection. The Wi-Fi is on on the laptop.
