    Ok, i have 2 problems.

    1. After i hibernate my laptop, when i turn it on the next day, it takes soooo long to connect to the internet (saved). I'm in vista, so the wireless signal turns to the triangle, then the 2 computers, then the 2 computers with the globe. Why does it take so **** long? Is there anyway to shorten it?

    2. After i sleep, and i wake it up, the wireless doesn't connect. I have to restart the computer.

    thanks!

    well, i tried the vista tips and tricks and disablled that workstation thing. Hibernate problem fixed (i think)

    now sleep is the problem. I have my network saved, and after i sleep it, it won't connect, even manutlaly disconnect and reconnecting. I have to reboot

    I face this issue sometimes , for this you don't need to restart , just disable and enable the device back and it should work .

    What version of Vista? Did you install Vista yourself, or was it pre-loaded on your laptop? If you installed yourself, did you install all of the necessary drivers and notebook system software?
