Hey, i have a strange problem with my NIC on my laptop. When the laptop is plugged in i am able to boot windows XP and the NIC connects to the router pretty much instantly.
However on battery power I have to wait about 30 seconds after i log in for the network card to connect to the router. (Its not even attempting to) Just get a red cross in the bottom corner.
I have looked at the power settings of the NIC and changed them to full power when running on battery and also had a look in the power options and changed the computer to use full processor when on battery but still when i am not plugged in i have to wait for the connection to establish.
Any ideas ?
