Default [Q] Archos 101 Wifi

The wifi on my 101 keeps dropping frequently. I know its not my router, as I have 2 laptops, a desktop, 2 nexus one's, and google tv all running without problem on the wifi in the same locations as I've tried the 101.

It seems to drop every time it comes out of sleep and then every few minutes even while using the device. Tried spare parts, but still no success.

Any thoughts?

Its to do with the encryption and security, using WEP or none and it works fine.

Same. I'm using WPA2. Check out with wifi analyzer (from market) or similar apks if your wifi is using the same overlapping channel with others around you and ensure your signal strength is not too weak to the device.

May need to tweak the signal strength on your router to make it stronger otherwise, and change the channel to a free channel..
