I have four computers on a network.
Three XP have operating Systems and one has Vista OS.
Two XP' are direct cable to the modem/router.
Once XP uses a wireless NIC card
The Vista uses a Netgear WG311v3 54 mps wireless to the modem/router.
None of the XP units ever lose the Internet connection.
But on the Vista, only when using Windows Mail, if I leave the computer for a several minutes, I return to find an error window graphics as follows.

I have looked at the Wireless NIC card device settings and the pwr saving settings are off.
Under Power Settings in the Control Panel, the Wireless NIC is set for MAX Performance.
I don't get this message if I leave while a web page is up.
Any help on what settings I might change would be appreciated.
The Vista Computer is a Dell Dimension 530. I use the wireless NIC because I am out of cable connections on the modem/router
