Networking on my Vista computer stops working on a daily basis (DNS, VPN,
accessing local files on an XP machine). Rebooting resolves the issue. Any ideas? Thank you, Michael |

Are you using wireless?

No; Also, if I put the computer in sleep mode, after resuming, networking
sometimes works and sometimes does not work. Most instances, I have to reboot after resuming. |

Perhaps you should try to use power High Performance. Please post back with
the result. -- Bob Lin, MS-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "Michael Henderson" wrote in message ...

I have the same problem and has been a problem for about 2 months
(since getting Vista). I have no problems with my networked XP machines. I have tried telling the Marvell Yukon network card (built into an ACER desktop PC) not to go to sleep all to no avail. I have updated the drivers twice with no change. Is there a driver setting that may help to resolve this problem or is this caused by Vista knows best policy which Microsoft have crow barred in to the OS.

hi michael,
as a matter of fact i am using the endlessly nightmarish dial up service, but i tried rebooting and this didnt eliminate the problem. also i recently downloaded "incredimail" and it prompted me to configure my computer to use "pop 3" whatever that is i dont know because unfortunately im 40 years old and we didnt get computer training in mid school and high school like our kids do and im obviously ignorant to computers otherwise i would have never chose "high speed dial up service" by the way i currently use windows vista (if that matters) lol any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thank you michael for your input if any. d "Michael Henderson" wrote: Networking on my Vista computer stops working on a daily basis (DNS, VPN, accessing local files on an XP machine).

hi noddy,
i too have windows vista and what my computer repair guy did inform me about vista is that it is an information magnet, meaning if it is virused it would probably need to be triple stamped over in order for vista to stop being able to read to virus even after deletion and it being quaranteened. now im not saying your virused but if you have downloaded something that requires a different server type that may be your problem and your system may just need to have added additional servers. hope this helps d "Noddy" wrote: I have the same problem and has been a problem for about 2 months (since getting Vista).
