I have a Linksys wireless-n usb adapter connecting to a Linksys wireless-n router on a computer running Vista. It connects just fine, but periodically the connection will drop.
As far as windows is concerned the adapter is working perfectly, but the router went away. That isn't the case of course and other devices connected to that router continue to work fine. Unplugging and replugging in the usb adapter corrects the problem, but it's very annoying.
Not sure what the exact pattern is to getting it to mess up, but it seems to be when transferring a lot of data. Downloading a large file will usually do the trick. Trying to load a network game like Warcraft will kill it instantly 100% of the time.
I've tried tweaking every router/adapter setting I can think of, but no luck. Any suggestions?
