D600 Latitude - Netware Connection

Question

I just installed our standard Novell Netware client 4.83 with various patches on to a new Latitude C600 (WinXP Pro).

It looses its connection to our network after only a few minutes, this is the same client that I use on all our other Dells, GX150/GX240/GX260 Latitude C400 etc etc all with Win XP Pro.

Is there a known problem with networking and the D600, we are using the laptop in the docking station ( D Series )

Elsewhere here I have read that it may help to uninstall the Intel/Broadcom NIC switcher ( ??) software,

Any ideas ...

How did you get on with this?? I am having intermittent network problems on my new D600 (connecting to a NetWare server). Most folders I can view ok, one I cannot see any contents (I can browse to it and below it ok, just not in it) logging on to GroupWise was a bit hit and miss too. I have done what was suggested in this thread but no change

Does any one else has any experience of this problem?? Preferably with a solution??

Regards

Had this problem.  Fixed it by turning off the 'Adapter Switching Driver' located in Network Properties. Trying to find out what the purpose of the Adapter Switching driver is, but havent yet had any luck finding that.  Oh, well all appears to be working now without it.
