Network connection available/unavailable/available

Question

Hi,   I just reformatted my HD, installed Windows XP and I think have installed all the proper drivers. I am using a Dell TrueMobile 1150 internal wireless card.   My problem is this: Literally every 2-3 seconds the wireless connection says available, then unavailable, then available, then unavailable, etc...   I've tried using a static IP and DNS, as well as letting it obtain them automatically.   What else can I do?   Thanks!

Sounds like my problem, too. I haven't been able to figure it out- it doesn't do that when I use a network cable, only wireless.

mwbauer7 I hope you have CLEARED the checkbox 'allow Windows to turn off power' to the network adapter ('Configure')
