Issues with linksys systems
I think there might be an issue with the linksys hardware and Vista. I was
running Beta 2 for a few months without any issues with my wireless card but now that I have installed RC1 5600 I get dropped from my home network every few seconds. I know I am getting a good IP address, dns, etc., and I have tried uninstalling the drivers but to no avail. I am currently at work and have not had an issue with my wireless (I've been working for 3 hours now). I looked at various forums and many linksys cards are having issues. I have a broadcom 802.11g card, which seems to be fine, so my linksys router ( WRT54GS ) seems to be the problem. The only strange thing I have seen is that I am sending an unusually low amout of packets out, aprox 1000 packets sent but 8500 recieved. Is anyone else having issues with linksys routers/wireless hardware?

Issues with linksys systems
Same problem with me to Andrew. I also have a Linksys wireless adaptor
(Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapter) connecting to a WAG54G-V2 router. Connection drops every 15-20min, have to restart computer to solve problem. Had been previously running Beta2 5384 for two months without a hitch. Very annoying! If I find a solution I will post it back here.
