wifi
Has anyone had a problem with their wifi after logging back in from being
away for a while? It won't connect or even detect any networks. If I restart the laptop it will connect properly. Is there anyway for it to work without restarting? M

These two KB articles will probably help:
http://support.microsoft.com/KB/928152 http://support.microsoft.com/KB/943899 I think this is addressed with SP1.

wifi
Hi Michael,
In addition to the articles given you by Mark, you may also check with the system manufacturer for an updated wireless driver. Also, some include their own wireless connection management software, while others rely on Windows' own. I generally have found the latter to be better, but it can't hurt to try both to see which works for you. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "Michael Morin" wrote in message news Has anyone had a problem with their wifi after logging back in from being away for a while?

M Yep I have had that but all I had to do was to right click on the wireless icon and click on "Connect to network" which brings up a report saying there are no networks. I click on the refresh icon and it finds it and auto connects straight away.
