I changed my APs channel to Auto, it was channel 6 and I was having issues. However, I was using MS's zero conf client. Last night I installed Intel's wireless tools and it seemed to fix things up. I hve the laptop setup to dual boot. When I boot to Linux I never noticed this problem. Maybe it is just something with the built-in MS wireless client. Jim -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
