Internet Explorer 7 so SLOW in Vista
I have a brand new Dell E521 Dual Core with 2GB RAM and just installed a
Netgear WG311T PCI Adapter that connects to a Linksys WRT54G Router (all wireless) at 54MB speed (excellent connection - they are about 5 ft apart) and getting on the web is excruciatingly SLOW. My XP machines fly (going thru the same connection), while my Vista machine just sits there and the Internet Explorer glass spins. I have the network connection set up where the Netgear software is running the network connection setup as should be and al seems good. I've got the latest update from Netgear for the adpater and even thoug it is a 108MB adapter, it will only run at 54MB under Vista, which shouldn't be an issue. When I run a network speed test, I get a really high latency time, but when the download and upload finally kicks in, they are great as well - cable speeds. I just think the connection is not set up properly, Anybody got any suggestions? Terry P.S. I'm writing you from my XP machine cause it would take me forever to do it from Vista.

These kinds of spuratic errors are probably due to a malfunctioning device
driver. I'm assuming you are using the Netgear driver. Try setting the driver to a default Microsoft provided one, or try downloading a newer driver from Netgear if it is available.
