Do you have any kind of virus protection installed on your computer? If so, which one? Any firewalls set up? 

 

Thanks,

Kyle

The driver that i received from HP Support Assistant application, did not work at this time. The link I have listed here is the only one that resolved my issue.

HP Recommended

ok so i just tried the driver listed above.. my problem still persists

HP Recommended

its actually worse

HP Recommended

I am experiencing the same problem with my notebook. I lose signal strength the farther I am from the router starting at about 10 feet.  I have the most current driver and updated all the software.  There is no other anti-virus software except what came with Windows 8.    I have a slightly  older HP with Windows 7 and  will work anywhere in the house with full bars showing.

What anti-virus did your notebook come pre-installed with?
