Hmmm ... that's funked up. Especially since this is the third AT&T router we've had in the last two months (for various other reasons) ... between you, me, and Ian, I'm starting to see a trend

We have the same laptop (DELL Inspiron), and experience the exact same problem. Windows XP, SP2, AT&T DSL...only difference is, our router/connection is not wireless. I have tried EVERYTHING i can possibly think of. Just as with you, the only way to fix the problem is to completely reboot the machine. I have gone round and round with AT&T tech support about the issue.....to no avail. I really think it has something to do with that particular machine....it's something about that damn laptop but I'll be damned if I know what. I NEVER have the problem with my PC using the same set up. It's only that laptop. Our problem has diminished over time, to where we are only rebooting once every few weeks, but for awhile, it was once or twice a day as you are describing. Doubt this was very helpful...other than someone else feels your pain. -- And I never stop the dream Or the growing need For speed and novacaine ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:249245 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
