Windows 7 dropping wireless connection
Have a Dell laptop E6500 with a fresh load of Windows 7 RTM. Loaded the entire machine using wireless network connection (WEP) over a Cisco Aironet 1100. Added to domain, loaded Office 2007, and applied a few Dell updated drivers.
Brought it home on a DLink DIR-628 wireless router using WPA2, and it averages about 10% packet loss...
continuously get network drops... just a small snipet.
