Yesterday I bought a brand new Lenovo z510 laptop. Although I invested a large amount of money and everything seemed perfect, a noticed a very bad problem, that I don't know how to fix. When I try to connect to my wi-fi network, it connects, but after a while the connection turns into "Limited Connectivity". My Wireless card is N 7260. I searched the internet and read that other people with the same model had the same issue. I tried a newer version of the drivers, I tried re-installing the OS (I am using Win 7 on the laptop), I brought the laptop to the place where I bought it, and there it connected to 2 wi-fi networks without any problems and it worked a while without difficulties. They told me I can't replace the laptop, since there is no problem. However, back home everything went downhill. As much as I would like to think this is a problem, coming from my router, the fact that my other laptop connects flawlessly, prevents me from doing so. I am soon moving to the UK and I thought I will have a perfect new laptop. I guess I was wrong. I hope Lenovo releases new drivers soon that will fix the problem..If not, I don't know what to do with the laptop. Can you help me? I would really appreciate. Thank you.

I tried the new laptop in various areas, connected to various networks. It works flawless everywhere else, but in home. Any idea what the problem might be? And if the problem is not in my router in home, why then my other laptop connects there without any problems? I am really confused and don't know what is going on. Also, I noticed that my new laptop's wireless card is not very good at long ranges. Can you help me or at least tell me what is happening? Thank you very much.
