We have a basic home wireless setup with a Netgear 814v2 WAP. After installing XP on my laptop, which has an Orinoco gold pcmcia card, my wireless connections have been very inconsitent (e.g. fine for 5 minutes, dropped for 15 seconds, then fine for 5 more minutes). Is this normal for XP and is there a known fix?

Thanks, LS
