    Transfer errors using wifi

    My wireless driver's name is 11a/b/g Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Adapter (by Atheros), and I'm frequently encountering the problem below when wirelessly transferring large files over the network (to a remote SAMBA server).

    "File copy failed | Windows error = 64: The specified network name is no longer available."

    Let me say in advance that when I use the LAN cable this doesn't happen.

    To think it has something to do with Advanced Properties in the driver dialog, but I don't understand which setting is causing it. Anyway, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers which originate from Lenovo's own site, and unfortunately the problem persists.

    Just wondering if there is a Thinkpad-specific fix to this. Thanks for any help regarding this.
