Disable the stupid wirless manager fucker. Go into services and enable windows zero configuration. This will let windows xp assign your wireless connection in that first window that says windows cannot do it.

It could be due to interference on your channel that your router and card are setup to use. Try changing the channel your wireless is set to run on. It will require you to do two things:

1. Setup your router.
Before you even start, I suggest finding what channel(s) are not being used by your neighbors already. Finding a clear channel could help in the long run rather then getting mixed noise in from other networks. You can tell which channel your neighbors are running on by opening the Intel Wireless connection utility and choosing 'Properties' on each network. Under 'Access Points' you'll see what channel their routers are running on.

In your routers wireless config, choose a channel that wasn't already in use.

2. Setup your wireless card.
While the card should automatically detect the channel and operate on it, you can force it to the channel if you need to. You can also alter some other settings which could help boost the signals performance.

Open the device manager for your system. (I'm assuming you know how to get there already.) Locate your network card (wireless one) and choose properties. Being an Intel card there should be a tab under that properties window named 'Advanced'.

You can customize some settings on the card here which are not normally known about.

Mainly, set the channel on the card to the one you just recently set your router to. Then go through the other settings and alter them as you see fit. I highly recommend you read each information blurb if you do not know what you are doing. Also, I would recommend looking up the configurations if you are still unsure after reading.

You can push up the aggressiveness of roaming and power management to remove some of the restrictions the card may have on by default.

3. Optional stuff..
Router Placement
It is a good idea to position your router in your house closer to the devices that will be interacting with it. The less distance the signal has to travel the better of a connection you will have. Also try to avoid setting the router close to objects that give off their own signals, radiation, and so on. (Such as a microwave.)

Direction of signal.
By default most routers have a default setup of an antenna that shoots the signal in all directions. Meaning you could lose out on the signal being pushed in a direction where a device either can't get to or will never be. You can reduce that by creating some sort of 'wall' to sit behind your router with tinfoil on it to bounce the signal in a different direction which can help as well.

A method like this can be seen here:
