I have no network as such, but my internet connection is via a router
and I have constant problems since upgrading. I seem to lose the connection several times daily, and even when I don't lose the connection it is much slower than it was under XP. My network adapter is an NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller, built into the mobo. I have tried getting an updated driver but none is available on the nvidia website for vista. If I right click the network icon on the taskbar, select "Diagnose and Repair" it tries to repair, then says it can't solve the problem and asks if I want to reset the adapter. Sometimes this solves the problems, sometimes not. Is this a known problem? Also under Local Area Connection properties in the box "This connectionuses the following items" I have Client for Microsoft Networks QoS Packet Scheduler File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks TCP/IP v4 and v6 Link layer topology discovery mapper I/O driver Link layer topology discovery responder Do I need all of these on a computer with only an internet connection, no LAN? Thanks. Mossie |

I have an HP laptop with a Broadcom wireless g internal and am having
the exact same issues! Everything worked fine until I upgarded over the weekend. Even the blue wireless light on the laptop is blinking now as opposed to just being on. I get disconnected several times, and when it IS connected its VERY slow. I also have found that when I click reset the network adapter, it will be PK, but only for a while before the headache comes back. Hopefully someone has a fix, its killing me! |
