XP Pro SP2 networking slow to start

I recently performed a full install of XP Pro SP2 (not an upgrade or a patch)
on my Gateway laptop. When I startup the computer, everything seems to come
up fine. As soon as I try to access my wired OR wireless network (with my SMC
802.11b card), I experience a 1-2 minute delay before my network is
available. After the delay, everything works fine until I shut down the
system. I have reviewed all of my network setings and adjusted them to
various outher settings with no avail. Any ideas or suggestions?
 
I had similar problems on my network on since xppro sp2 . Yet my win 98
client was fast. I found solution on this page. It did it for me. I had
only .25% usage on my lan. Now at over 50% all the time. Hope it helps.

I wanted to contact the guys from Infomax who posted this info and give
thanks.
