Mac,

Try this: Use the Maximum Performance setting in power options. By default
the wireless network adapter is configured to use Medium Power Save mode when
it is using battery power. This uses the 802.11 power save mode. You may want
to configure the wireless network adapter to use the Maximum Performance
setting. Use the “High performance†power plan To do this, please follow
these steps: Click Start , and in Windows Help and Support, type Power
Options in the Start Search box, and then click Power Options in the Programs
list. Click High performance. Windows Help and Support contains considerable
information about power saving options. Let us know whether any of this
helps.
 
Mac,

Sorry, memory going fast.

Under Windows Help and Support, search on power options > #2 Change power
management settings > Click on open Power Options > High Performance. When
you select that, it means you are changing whatever power plan you now have.
You also can get to this area by using Control Panel. I like to have people
use Windows Help and Support so that they can see how much information is
available.
 
Didn't work

Mac,

That's all the ideas I have. Not every problem is a Vista associated issue.
There typically are other variables involved, including the NIC, modem, and
possible other things. You'll just have to look around in the settings for
those other devices, including settings in power management, to see whether
you can find a solution. These things can be hard to diagnose. The
condition your have also could possibly be normal. I just don't know. I did
my best. Anyone else?
 
I have no problem with my laptop recovering its wireless connection coming
out of sleep mode.
Do you also have a Ethernet cable connected to your laptop? If not do you
have the port disabled?
I suspect a BIOS update may be required, contact your laptop manufacturer
for possible updates to your system.
