Solved:- Strange wireless conflict

Hi all,

I have a strange wireless problem

Details are as follows

HP Pavillion dv5-1003nr
Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1
Atheros WLAN Card
Wireless switch on, WLAN enabled in HP wireless assistant
SP2 updated recently
Free AVG Antivirus and Spubot S&D Installed for security
Wireless Router Linksys WRT54G
WEP enabled n/w

I use this router at home.Everytime I
connect my laptop to these routers the router drops the Internet
connection and resets itself and it does this every 4-5 mins. However,
I do not have this problem on other wireless networks (neighbour's, hotspots, etc.)
few other laptops that use Vista/XP/Mac connect to this router
without any problem. My laptop is the one not working.
I know it's not my laptop as it works fine elsewhere, it can't be router as other laptops work fine too.
Atheros Cards don not have an option to change channel number. Router is set to channel 11.

I'm confused about whom to bother, HP or Linksys...!!! :cry:
