Bill,

Just an FYI, I got a new Dell sometime last December, just before I left town
for a couple months.  It was incredible frustrated with my wireless card, it
would work but pain fully slow.  I then started recieving disconnects.

I went as far as rebuilding my laptop... format C: reinstall.  I still had the
same problems.  I checked every driver and finally called Dell.  They sent me a
knew card a presto, everything worked better than great.  Or as Walt would say,
"wow mama", everywhere in my house I get an "Excellent" connection.

Pinging with 500ms to 1000ms, seems to me to be awful slow even for wireless.

Regards,

-Craig
