Perhaps It Is the Wi-Fi Card After All

A little while after my last posting, the wi-fi quit again. I shut the computer down and moved elsewhere and restarted. It initially could not find the wi-fi, then found it again, then lost it once more.

I already tried re-seating the wi-fi card and antennas. This problem seems to have something to do with the computer getting "warmed up" and then losing the connection. Maybe at home I can get it to happen reliably enough to convince Dell warranty support to attempt a fix. The problem I see is that it could be the wi-fi card, but could also be the antenna wires into the laptop's screen. Phooey.
