Exploring the Microsoft support site I found something interesting about the wireless power options. There is a mechanism for saving your notebook battery when using wireless. This works only if the WLAN router is compatible with the 802.11 power save protocol. The idea is that when permanently connected through wireless adapter there is a constant communication between the adapter and the WLAN router which uses some power. The power saver mode offers an interesting algoritm. The adapter periodically sleeps and wakes and before entering in one of these modes it tells the router so. The router knowing that adapter is temporary not responsible starts to cache the packages for it and after adapter wakes up router sends it all the cached packages.
How can you change wireless power mode to make it work as you like?
Enter Power Options. The quickest way to me is through the Vista instant search from the start menu.
After entering Power Options choose the power option you would like to change and click on "Change plan settings". Then choose "Change advanced power settings" and expand the "Wireless Adapter Settings" node. Expand the "Power saving mode" and choose what is suitable for you.
The mode that will end your wireless connectivity and performance problems is "Maximum performance".
Here is some extra information.
Can anyone recommend the robust Remote Management & Monitoring utility for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central remote pc access software
