    Hi,

    My Laptop (WIN XP SP3 ) WiFi connection seems to keep resetting itself and then reconnecting .

    When at home....
    Every 20mins or so I get a pop up on my bottom toolbar to tell me I have now connected to my home WiFi ?

    When on the road ...
    I use a Vodafone 3g Dongle but it seems to freeze up and i need to disconnect and reconnect via the Vodafone GUI .
    ______________________________________________________________

    Both problems may be separate but the frequency seems the same , every 20mins or so ?

    What I have tried ...
    Update the driver on my Laptop Wireless card , no better one available ?

    Any suggestions to diagnose and fix would be greatly appreciated.

    M.

    Could be a conflict between the two wireless devices.

    Have you tried turning of the onboard wifi while using the 3G card? Also, I am nearly sure you have to log onto the 3G threw the GUI, well for o2 you do anyway.
