Vista dropping LAN and Wireless connection when system is idle.

[Guest Gil]

I have a client that has a laptop with Vista. Whenever he is in a specific

office he says that his LAN and his Wireless connection lose access to the

internet. (Red X between the Network Icon and the Internet Icon) He says

this doesn't happen anywhere else. This is a simple workgroup network. DSL

Line into DSL Modem\Router, router into Switch, switch into patch panel.

Nothing special. Others in the office using XP pro SP2 do not have this

issue at ALL.

I am having the same problem and the problem is with Vista. I have been

working on this about a month and if you do a search on the internet 'Vista

dropping wireless connection' you will see the problem everywhere. Come on

Microsoft where is the fix.

I have the same problem with a linksys WAP 4400N. I have 16 notebooks

connected and intermittently the connection will drop to any of them at

any time, and it can happen to any amount of machines. I find that

disconnecting from the AP and then reconnecting sometimes fixes the

problem but I am at a loss to knowing what the cause is.
