I'm using a Netgear WGR614 Router (on xp machine) with a WG111 wireless USB adapter (on 98se machine). I have been using WEP security for weeks with no problems and no disconnects. I wanted to start using WPA security. It works fine for a few hours and then I get on-off-on-off (green-red-green-red) connections. The only way I've been able to fix it is to enter new a passphrase in the router and copy the numbers into the wireless adapter. I know that the passphrase has a "key life timer" but isn't that supposed to be an automatic change? I'm not even sure if that's the problem. Is there something I'm doing wrong? There must be a way to keep the WPA connection alive for more than a few hours. Should I just go back to WEP? Please help. Thanks. -- Jennifer Morgan brought to you by http://www.wifi-forum.com/

I have seen the same issue when using WPA with an Edimax WAP and
Edimax cards (USB and PCI).

After about 20 mins I get the same on\off connection and it affects two
separate PCs at the same time.

Since it affects two PCs at the same time you might think its a problem
with the WAP, but a third PC equipped with a Intel Wireless card is
completely affected.
