    I have the Velocity Micro x20... Since I've gotten it a few weeks ago, I've been unable to get online while on battery power. So, just a little while ago, I uninstalled the drivers, and reinstalled them... I restarted my computer, it said it was connected, but still wouldn't load websites. I changed the power setting, and restarted the computer on battery power, and it completely froze up at the blue "Please Wait" screen. I tried to force a shutdown, but the power button won't work. What am I supposed to do? Did I just kill my computer? :eek:

    I finally got the computer to shut down, and it restarted okay, but my settings are screwed up and it's not recognizing my network at all, and the options for manually setting up the network connection have changed as well.

    I think I fixed it. I did a system restore and reinstalled the network adapter one more time, manually connected to my network and everything seems to be in order. Although, I unplugged it from AC, and it says it's still connected to the internet, but it won't work. I guess I'll have to call the company see what can be done about this crap.

    C90 is very, very picky about hardware... it might be an incompatibility problem.
