If you open up the Network Connections and hit Advanced > Advanced Settings, you will note that the wireless connection is higher then the wired. Try swapping those around and seeing if that speeds things up. Even with the wireless off (but not removed) it may still be trying and network time out is what? 180 seconds by default I think. Could be wrong, busy day. On Wed, Aug 6, 2008 at 2:08 PM, Mike Gill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have a Dell Latitude D520 with WinXP Pro that has the Dell 1490 Dual Band > wireless card in it.
