Connection to Network Drops After 10 Mins

[no.access]

Hi,

I recently moved and went from a network I connected to by Ethernet to a
different one I connect to wirelessly. After about 10 minutes, I lose my
connection to the network (not wireless connection, I consistently have very
good to excellent connection). When I lose the connection, the wireless icon
on the task bar says I'm still connected and ipconfig gives me a valid IP
address, but my computer is unpingable by any other device on the network.

This does not affect either my Windows XP laptop or my iPod Touch which both
can connect to the network and stay connected.

Things I've tried, but have ended up with the same result:
- Using safe-mode with networking.
- Specifying a DNS server.
- Specifying a static IP address.
- Specifying DhcpNodeType in the registry to be Broadcast and Mixed (the
Node Type used to become unknown when I lost connectivity).

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi
Make sure that your Wireless Router broadcast its SSID.
Try to disable the Wireless Card Power Saving.

Hi,

Thanks for the response. SSID broadcast is enabled and the wireless card's
power saving mode is set to "Constantly Awake".

Anything else I should try?

Thanks.
