Running Home edition. Installed SP2 and after reboot, connectivity is lost
and then established and seconds later lost again, etc. Any suggestions?

Go to the mftr.'s website for your network device and update the
drivers.

Never get drivers from Windows Update. Get them from:

1. The device mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM
computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the
drivers.

To find out what hardware is in your computer:

1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific
model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers
anyway)
3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc
Advisor. The older Aida32 is good for this, too.

Thanks, I ended up dumping a lot of the software network software that had
been loaded pre-SP2 and it works like a charm now.
