I have a Sierra Wireless Aircard 595U and at unexpected times the IE 7 will
stop browsing and the Sprint Connection manager will lock up as well as the
charging status and networking and sharing portion of the task bar. What
gives?
 
I also have this same issue. I constantly lock up, especially if I walk away
for a minute. I also have a Dell laptop, running Xp, and I can use the card
 
I have talked with sprint till I'm blue in the face. I have an IT friend of
mine looking into the problem now. He seems to think that the BIOS needs
flashing. I tend to think it's Windows Live One Care. Do you have that
program?
 
Not sure what the Windows Live One Care program is. Sprint replaced my card,
and the new card has the same issue. I can tell you, that I have a laptop
from work, running windows XP, and the card runs fine. So I am beginning to
think it is the Vista that is the problem. Let me know if you find out
anything new, and I will as well.
 
I thought I was the only one having this problem. The card works perfectly
fine with windows xp, but with vista it just drops in some time.

However, I realized that if I am watching a stream ( movie etc.) online, it
doesn't disconnect for hours even on vista! Looks like the problem comes
when the connection becomes idle.
 
I think I solved the problem, was reading through articles on the web and
found out it had something to do with power management.

In my case, I went to power options in control panel and selected
advanced.It had 'USB selective suspend' setting enabled. I disabled it and it
has been working without a problem ever since ( 30 ~ 40 minutes). Still
testing it, so will post again if the problem comes back!!

Hope it works for everyone.
