I have a belkin pre-n wireless adapter in a vaio nvr23 laptop and it
constantly loses the connection to my AP.  I used to reboot the machine
to get it working again but have found out if I just take the card out
and plug it back in it starts working again.  Is anyone else having
this problem ? I don't know if it is total crap drivers from belkin
(probably), a problem with XP (probably) or if my aging D-Link AP is
going out to lunch.

Help, this sucks and is driving me insane.

reliable as others. You want each packet acked for example. You might
want try playing with those settings.

I have the Belkin Wireless Pre-N network adapter, version 1000, in my Compaq
Evo N610c laptop.  I use the Belkin Wireless Client Utility with 128 bit WEP
security encryption to configure the wireless connection.  The Windows XP
Wireless Connection Utility did not connect with the WPA security.  The
original network card driver was 1.2.0.68, and I upgraded it to version
1.2.0.80 a month ago.  I installed the newer version without uninstalling
the original version.  I then began to get constant drop-offs and couldn't
get the connection to stay up.  In my frustrated phase, I called Belkin for
support and the support rep was drawing a blank and started to tell me to
use the Windows XP Wireless Connection Utility, even though Belkin
recommends using the Belkin Wireless Client Utility.  When I told him that
the Windows XP Wireless Connection Utility had been a bust in the past, he
came up with the idea to uninstall the newer version since it had been
installed over the older version.  I uninstalled all of the Belkin software,
installed
version 1.2.0.80, but still got the drop-offs.  I then uninstalled
everything again, and reinstalled the original version, 1.2.0.68.  My
connection is now consistent again.
