    hi...

    i have a network problem in my Dell inspiron 1525 notebook with Vista Home premium SP1..

    the internet connection through ethernet or via wifi or via usb is shrinking after sometime :say 10 min. i've tried by diasbling my firewall and anti virus antispyware but no effect.. after restarting it again works and shrinks after some time... when i tried that modem with my friend notebook internet works with no problems..

    this problem comes soon after i uninstalled trend micro security suite since it's not very compatible with vista SP1 updating...

    i don't know what problem is?? kindly help....

    What do you mean by the connection is shrinking?

    shrinking means slowly data speed reduces and finally disconnects....

    Are you using wireless or wired with your notebook? Have you checked for the most recent drivers from Dell? I would also make sure your BIOS is up to date as well.

    Aside from uninstalling trend micro have you installed or updated with any Service Packs or updates, if so I would suggest rolling them back to the previous version.
