Ok I have:
SERVER
Windows XP Pro
2 pci nics
1 wireless card (Linksys PCI 802.11G)
LABTOP
one wireless card (Linksys PCMIA 802.11G)\
The way i have it set up is i have one nic connected to my cable modem and the other nic connected to a 8 port switch and bridged with the wireless card. I am using internet sharing, now the wired part of it work fine my problem is the wireless
I am using a AD-HOC connection type with a WPA-NONE key after i configure the card my labtop sees it and connectes to it and it work fine for about an hour after an hour of me not messing with the server the connection drops and i have to restart and reconfigure the card to make it work again, for some odd reason the card switches the connection type to something else at random but i think its windows doing that but then again sometimes it wont switch and just drop after i mess with it again it work for about another hour and does the same thing and its not just the same problem it switches the connection type or key and just really messes with it
now i told it to not power save and scanned for viruses and everything and looked every where for something on it and just cant find any solutions to this problem i even read the manual for it and talk to the linksys techs and no help
if anyone has any ideas to what it might be that would be great!
