From: musicman0703 on 2 May 2005 15:21 I got a Belkin Wireless Network Card, installed it in to the computer. Then, I installed the Belkin Software to configure the Wireless Connection. The signal strength is excellent, but after about five minutes of being connected it disconnects about every minute. It always reconnects right away, but I'm trying to figure out why it keeps disconnecting. I tried uninstalling the Belkin program and just letting Windows XP configure the network connection, but that didn't help.
From: Curtis M on 2 May 2005 15:50 I have had issues with wireless security causing disconnect problems. You could try turning off all wireless security to see if that makes a difference. -- Regards, Curtis, MCSA Landis Computer "musicman0703" <musicman0703(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:D80130B2-EDD1-47F7-9B5E-2C66950EC5CB(a)microsoft.com... >I got a Belkin Wireless Network Card, installed it in to the computer. >Then, > I installed the Belkin Software to configure the Wireless Connection.

If this is a home network it is likely that 802.1x authentication is enabled and is failing then disconnecting after 5 minutes. The check box for this setting can be found on the authentication tab for the wireless network connection. This check box should be unchecked if you do not have an infrastructure to support 802.1x authentication. -- Please do not send e-mail directly to this alias.
