Any changes to the network, new equipment or new software installed? For example, some software sending lots of broadcast messages to the network? > It is frustrating.

I would try testing the battery without WLAN and anything else running, just in standby mode. It should last about 10 days like that. If not, either there is something waking up the CPU all the or the battery is broken. I know that it's difficult to not use N800 for ten whole days. I couldn't do it ;) -- Kalle Valo _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
