Having network connectively problems since upgrading HP dv5000 from XPsp2 to vista64U. Decided to upgrade my Linksys wireless router and had placed an order for a Linksys WRT160N. After placing this order I decided I should upgrade the adapter with it. Glad I did, for I got on line chatting with an Linksys tech rep and was informed currently they have no vista 64 compatible wireless adapters. Ask if he could or would recommend something else and he did not. ::Called Tigerdirect and they stated the same, currently no 64 compatible wireless router or adapters available. He told me I believe he said MS was coming out with 64 updates within the next month or two or when ever..:: ::I was wondering if any one could verify or disclaim this info?:: -- Xgun

I can't confirm the information. However, at meantime, you may try to remove
the IPv6. That may be work. Please post back with the result.

D-Link's extreme N (draft) pccard adapters run fine on Vista and
there are drivers either provided with Vista or on Windows Update for x64. One thing, there MAY be a driver for whatever card you have on WU, but you may have to connect with wired Ethernet (and the wireless card active) to pull it down.

IPv6 cannot be removed from Windows Vista like XP. It can be disabled
though. For more details, see: https://www.microsoft.com/technet/ne...6/ipv6faq.mspx -- Eric Cross Microsoft MVP (Windows Networking) http://mvp.support.microsoft.com "Robert L.

Erirc,
You can remove IPV6 completely if you modify the registry by following the link. The following is the result of ipconfig /all from my Vista laptop without IPv6. You just can't do it normally. You need to use regedit. Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6000] Copyright (c) 2006 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

I made the adjustments Robert L suggested last night and so far no disconnects. Took ipv6 and tunneling completely off. The real test will be today when streaming will be kicking in..... It is appreciated! -- Xgun

It has not loss its connection since removing the ipv6. I am still having a streaming issue though. I run TDAmeritrade's StrategyDesk which streams its data during stock market hours. It stops updating intermittently. Didn't have that problem prior to the upgrade and I have spoken with TDA techs who tell me there is nothing wrong with their end. They suspect it may be a Java problem. I have removed both programs several times but no help. StrategyDesk is a stand alone program. I receive streaming data through the web browser with no problems... -- Xgun
