    this is a little annoying but sometimes i'll put my computer to sleep and when i turn it on my wifi simply wont connect. The only thing that works is a restart. Anyone else have this issue? Doesnt have all the time but probably once out of 6 times when my computer goes into stand by mode.

    Yours is using Intel 5100 right? Have you use the latest driver from Intel?

    Mine used to do that before I reformatted and installed Windows. You might want to try it.

    yes i reformatted vista and have the latest version of intel 5100. I guess i'll wait until w7 comes and hopefully the problem will go away.
