lose connectivity after an hour

Running an MN-700 to an IBM T40 with an a/b/g mini-pci card.
Using access connections to manage my wireless connections.

After being connected for about an hour, the connection suddenly disappears.
When I try to re-connect, it won't assign an IP address.

Any ideas? Just updated the MN-700 to the latest firmware, but that still
does not seem to help.

TIA,

Steve

Have you tried cold booting the MN-700 to see if the
client will get an IP after the MN-700 initializes? Are
you running using WEP keys? What OS?

Try extending the lease length time under LAN settings.
With the two hour setting the workstation will try to get
a new IP address after half the time (1 hour). If you set
if for a week or two then see if that gives you more
time. If it does, there's something blocking DHCP
broadcast packets maybe?

Good Luck.
