Don't know, really... :-/              We did had trouble with wifi-scanners, that they lost connection quite       many times and at the worst time, but after a whiles experimentation it       seemed that the trouble was the default power save mode that caused all       the dropped connections.              I never had this kind of trouble with my laptop, which I never used with       wired network, so I more believe it has to do with settings than wifi.                     --               //Aho              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
