i just sent my asus g1s-a1 laptop in for repair about a week ago and got it back yesterday. it had TONS of problems..mainly blue screen, yaty yaty yata, etc

before…i used to be able to get on the internet fine wirelessly. now i put my laptop back on my desk (same place ive always kept it) and now it cant find my connection and my routers just under my room. the wirless card’s enabled, etc. but it says tht its out of range of any connections.

then when i plugged it in, it seemed to find my connection????

then when i unplugged it, it kinda just died (the connection)

could it be possible tht my wireless chip was damaged on the way back? cuz it wasnt packaged very securely. but it doesnt seem any damage is done

o, btw its running vista home premium
