    Hi Guys, I would appreciate if anyone can tell me how to fiX this thing- I got a IBM T30 Laptop. The problem is when I take off the battery charger/adapter connected to the laptop, the wireless connection gets disconnect and I have to repair the wireless connection in order to go back online. Likewise, If I plug in the charger/adapter to my laptop while in use/online, the wireless connection again gets disconnect. Can this my my wireless driver problem or battery charger problem? Please advise

    Check your power settings in control panel, and the driver settings for the card. It could be that it is set to turn off when you remove the power cord to conserve battery power (also the screen dims even if you set it to max).
