Mini Pci A/B/G/N wireless won't wake up after sleep mode?

Well I just got my T60 and am all excited to hook the thing up. So far everything has been going great, EXCEPT:

When I close the lid and put it to sleep, and then log back in the wireless disconnects from my router. Further more, it then won't detect any of the various routers in my vicinity, it's almost like it's asleep, but yet says it is at 100% radio strength. This is the Thinkpad ABGN one. Anyone every have this problem? Basically my system can never go to sleep then if I want wireless? I have to shut down and reboot.

Any ideas?

 

Here's something to try and I'm pretty sure it fixed some WLAN odditites I was having as well (radio would turn off when not connected and on battery but would be a bit wonky turning back on).

In Access Connections, go to "Configure" and then "Global Settings". Uncheck "Enable automatic wireless LAN radio control". Also, make sure you're running the newest version of Access Connections as there was recently a new version released.

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks for all the help! It worked like a charm. In the past I had put the power save mode on the atheros card from maximum to off and also there was another place I put the signal strength to maximum, I have no idea if these things are necessary or not but I'll leave it just in case.

On other question though, I see the LAN network keeps getting unplugged and disconnected too, I've read in other threads the same thing happens along with the wi-fi. I'm a little new at XP device manager settings on the T60, do you know how I can put the Ethernet LAN setting power safe mode to off? I can't seem to find the ethernet on the device manager listing, or perhaps I don't know exactly which one too look for?
