Wireless disables itself after 10/20 mins
Hello,
I have a inspiron 6400. The wireless (intel pro wireless 3945ABG) runs perfectly for about 10-20 mins but then disables itself and I am unable to enable it again unless I restart.
Does anybody know how to fix this issue?
Thanks

Open the Intel ProSet utility and find the power management settings. Then set it to always supply full power.

I tried that, but at the same time I updated the chipset, wireless drivers and also my bios. Seems to be ok now, hasnt turned off for about an hour!
Dont know what actually fixed it but im glad its fixed! The ethernet controller still has a yellow exclamation mark next to it in device manager but it doesnt seem to have any negative effect at the moment so all is well!
