strange problem

Nov 20, 2004 1 Replies

I have a netgear wireless pc card (wag511). It works beautifully in my



emachines 5305 laptop until I unplug the power cord to the laptop. At



this point all seems ok but it actually looses connection or is very



slow. If I plug the power back in all is fine again. But if I want to



stay on battery then I have to either put the laptop to sleep or



restart and then it works fine on battery. I have had this problem



since I got this card.


Any help greatly appreciated.


Have you checked the Power Saving settings for the adapter in device manager. It can be configured to stay on all the time or go to sleep now and then when on battery
