Sounds like a lost ip address. Have you hade the client run IPCONFIG /ALL from the command line to see if it still has it settings? Is your DHCP lease time set to 24 hours? Try setting it to 7-8 days. If all else fails try to repair the connection using NBTSTAT -R. The last step, replace the NIC. (Well, I may have skipped over some steps :-)

I have a new airBridge installed at a customer's home (June purchase with upgraded firmware). It has been online 3 days and has lost it's ability to surf the net once a day since then. 1. I am ALWAYS able to ping/monitor/configure the device from the wireless side. So...it is NOT losing association. 2. The client is ALWAYS able to ping/monitor/configure the device from the wireless side. So...it is not losing Ethernet. 3. However, about once a day, the client can no longer ping my gateway, nor surf the net. FIX ACTION: Power Reset...and whammo...back online. ODD TWIST: If he disconnects the Ethernet cable from the Desktop and plugs it into his laptop, he is back on the net instantly without a power reset. Plug it back into his Desktop and he still cant surf. Any ideas????
