That will usually fix any problems with the connection being dropped! You can do this by first going to the Control Panel and clicking on Network Connections. Go ahead and right-click on your wireless network connection and choose Properties. Click on the Wireless Networks tab and click on the name of the network in the list of Preferred networks.
Now you want to click Remove so that Windows will erase any of the current settings for that network and will start from scratch. A lot of times when you refresh the list of networks again, Windows will automatically connect.
Go ahead and click OK and then click on the wireless network icon in your taskbar and try to connect again. If that does not work, you can also try to Repair the wireless connection. The Repair option tries a few other things, such as disabling and re-enabling the wireless card, clearing out the DNS cache of old records, and then connecting to the wireless network. You can do a repair by going to Network Connections as shown below and right-clicking the wireless connection and choosing Repair.
