Default New PC with Vista locks up my linksys router

Theres no trace on Linksys site of WT1100

We have 2 laptops running XP and connected through a Linksys WT1100
router and they work great. We just got a new laptop with Vista and it
has all kinds of issue connecting to the internet. We can sometimes get
it to connect but if we also connect our XP PCs the router freezes up
and no more internet. At one point we had all 3 PCs working for about 5
minutes then the freeze up. The only way to get everything back to
working is to cycle power on the router.

I saw a similar thread to this one where the user ended up having an IP
address conflict but that is not the cause of my problem. We have the
router set with DHCP on and all computers are set to aquire IP
automaticly in the TCP/IP network settings. I have tried different
channels with no luck.

It really looks like, as is the case with most people, the router
dislikes Vista.

Any ideas?



Make sure your router is set with DHCP on and both computers are set to
aquire IP automaticly in the TCP/IP network settings.
