I am running RC1 and having the same problems alot of people are running
into. I am on the internet for about 15 minutes, then poof, the network is
gone. it looks like Vista is causing the router to do something, but not
quite sure. i use a Belkin wireless G F5D7000 version 6. i am connecting to
a Linksys wireless router. the WRT54GS. i updated the firmware to the most
current. still nothing. if i let the router sit with Vista off, the router
will work again. does anyone have any ideas? thanks in advance.

I have the same problem with RC2. Doing the following worked for me.

Right click on Wireless Network Connection, and then click “Configure�.
If asked for permission to open Network Connections, click on Allow.
Highlight the following items and press the “Uninstall� button:
Link-Layer Topology Discovery Mapper I/O Driver
Link-Layer Topology Discovery Responder

and

Uncheck “Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)�
Uncheck "QoS Packet Scheduler"

All the above is probably not necessary but seems to solve the router lockup
problems.

Good Luck!
