Resetting "wireless network adapter"

Thanks

I am using a Dell Latitude D500 laptop. There is no physical switch. From time to time my wireless signal tanks and I need to reset the adapter.

Try this. I made a short cut for you. Right click it and select 'Run as Administrator' when you want to use it. Hope this helps.
