My X61s seems to have extremely weak wifi capabilities. At hot spots such as hotels, airports and even with the wireless router in my apartment, it frequently drops the connection for many minutes (or doesn't detect them at all). This occurs even if i'm sitting within 5 feet in direct line of sight to my wireless router. In other hot spots I KNOW that they're available because everyone else around me is using the internet without issues. Has anybody experienced this issue with this particular model? If so, is there something i'm doing wrong?
