Clark,
Thanks for the tips, I really appreciate it. How do you turn off 802.1x? In
the properties for my wireless card, it says i have 802.11b/g enabled on
channel 11. Where do i go to set up different profiles for each connection?
Are you referring to TMobile's connection mgr software (I'm not using it on
this pc). I am also starting to think my problems are related to the Intel
wireless card because I notice other weird things in the wireless connection
status box--like it says I've been connected for 20 minutes after I've been
connected for only 2; and it shows only 30,000 bytes received after I've
downloaded a 40 meg file; and most weird of all, after it throws me off,
sometimes it shows I'm disconnected in that box but if i go to the browser
window and log into tmobile i get online and keep surfing--while the wireless
status says I'm disconnected!! Do you recommend going to the Intel website
and loading a newer driver for the card?
Thanks
Jeff
