Hi djanes:
Yup! Got the same problem and it is a pain. I have been wanting to try my Dlink router but I have it connected via a Dlink Gigabit switch and can't get to it with a browser. I will keep trying.

Windy George Hello Again Djanes: I did try the Dlink router. It is still a problem that after waking from sleep the internet connection is gone even though access to the internet is present. The only way to fix the problem is to Disable and then re-enable the local area connection. I have not found a way to do that yet!!! This is darn frustrating, perhaps some one from Redmond will read these multiple reports of problems and show us how to deal with it?

This is most likely caused by the NIC driver's handling of PnP power events.
My suggestion is to check with the NIC vendor to see if they have any updated driver for your particular NIC for Vista, or purchase a new NIC which is Vista compatible. -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

This was resolved some time ago. It was required that the power setting ' allow Windows to turn off this device to save power' be checked ON. I assume the rational to be that if Window may turn it off, then Windows may also turn it on. The key was that an update at the same time seemed to result in this working properly, since I had tried this recommendation before that time. Since then my system has gone to sleep or hibernated and wakened with internet access intact. Thanks Windy George.

Hello,
The NIC is the network interface card. Its the card inside your computer that connects your computer to the internet. Of course, if you want to learn more you can always search on the internet for explanations, pictures and what not... Hope this helps. -- Regards, Rishi email: | web: http://vista-news.com "LEL" wrote in message ...
