Wifi Broken or Router?

Hi,

I have an Inspiron 8600 Laptop (actually 2 of them). One of my laptops seems to drop the wireless connection to my home network quite often. I cant figure out if its my Linksys router or if its my wifi on the laptop.

I think its the laptop but I cant be sure. The internal card is a dell 1350 card.

I keep getting bumped off the network.

I was thinking about swapping the wifi card out of the other Inspiron 8600 into my regular 8600 laptop. That way I could determine if it is the wifi card or the router (unless someone else has a good idea).

How do I remove/install the wifi card in a Inspiron 8600? You guys were a huge help in getting my internal bluetooth card installed. I am hoping this can be another miracle.

Thanks,
Rich
