If you give us the model numbers etc, it would help us help you....
Too hard and expensive to change it.

Bit hard to get new components for a laptop, it'd be easier to fix the current ones.

Personally, I'd say there's something wrong with the drivers for both. try reinstalling them.

I'm using Sygate Personal Firewall.
About the drivers, the graphics card ones are weird. I have an ATi Radeon Mobility X700. Whenever I run the official ATi drivers, I get an error and it won't install. I have to use Omega Drivers instead, and it is up-to-date.
I'll try update my wireless drivers and see if it helps.

[Edit]
Updated the wireless card drivers and they have seem to fix the problem. Just need to sort out the graphics card.
