Houstonmat,

I had the same problem with my new computer running Vista Home Premium and
then Ultimate. I made several calls to Dell and Microsoft trying to
understand the problem.

Who is the vendor of your laptops? Is it Dell. If so, click on All Programs
and go to Dell Wirelss. Uncheck the box that says "Let Dell manage your
wireless connections". This will then let Windows manage the connection.

However, I still had some problems. After a bit more researching I was
advised to update the driver for my wireless card. This permanently solved
the problem for me. It may or may not work for you but the thing I discovered
was that it was not the fault of my Vista operating system.

Have a nice day.
