    Hi guys,

    SR29VN hooked via docking station have some problems with network. sometimes even 75% of packages got dropped and sometimes it work OK.

    Does this seems to you like a SW error, or broken docking station? Maybe I should do some driver upgrade, but dont know where to look for them?

    network via laptop's network works OK!

    I never tried to do so, sorry.

    Because I have my laptop secured with fingerprints, so i have to turn on the lid anyway.
