Wifi in Vista

[Nate Russell]

I have a Sony Windows Vista Home Premium laptop. The computer all in all
works fine, however, when the computer recovers from standby mode, it takes
forever to connect to a wifi network. I can watch the wifi signal meter, and
it bobbles between connected and disconnected for about 5 minutes before it
finally connects. Is this common? Is there a fix for this? I would like to
know.

Thanks
nate
