Jim, my sister is having this very problem.  She is  having it especially when 
she sends a longer email.  I was going to get a card, but with her problem, and 
hearing yours, I may not do that.

>Hello list,

>This is most disconcerting when I'm trying to read an EMAIL or web page and 
>the BN continually disconnects and reconnects.  I can turn wireless off if I

>Thanks for any help and ideas.  I got the card from Humanware!
