Vista Tutorial - Wirless Network Doesn't work after "hibernation or sleep" mode

If I shut down my computer and restart it, it connects to our wireless
network without a problem. As long as I don't allow it to go into
"hibernation or sleep" mode it continues to work, but once it goes to sleep
and I "wake it up" it will not connect to the wireless network. I'm using
WEP security but I really don't think security is the issue because it was
doing this before we secured the network. I try "connectiing" to the
network, but it will not connect and windows diagnosis reveals that it cannot
diagnose the problem. What's going on?

I bet your using the built in network port correct ? I had the same problem. I disabled the built in, and Installed a pci network card and the problem went away.

Microsoft is aware of the problem. There is no hotfix out yet. (I've Called) It will be fixed In SP-1 When that will happen Is anyone's quess.

By the way, My MB Is a Azus with PCIE Lan port.

I suffer the very same problem (and so do my coworkers). It has to be a
Vista bug, everything worked just fine on XP.
