Actually, that's how it will work at competition. Wireless from the PC is not used at an event.

Are the bands/frequencies different between the machines that work and those that do not work well?
If the bands differ, then you might have wireless contention from other wireless traffic in the area.
Does your Eee PC show other wireless networks operating?
