I am using my laptop with XP Pro Service Pack 1 and
whenever I either close my laptop or if it automatically
enters Standby Mode after 5 minutes, I lose my wireless
DSL network connection. I am forced to remove the NIC
card and then put it back in after a few seconds and let
the system automatically rediscovery the connection. What
am I doing wrong, or is this a problem in XP. Thanks.
 
U \\I have seen that problem before in laptops. I would
try and go into the bios and set the power save on the nic
to off and see if that helps. I think it is a "feature"
in XP though.. Hopefully fix that and others in the next
SP.
