Using Linksys Wireless G Notebook Adapter in PCG-GRT786M

For some reason every sony laptop i have tried to access the internet with using a Linksys Wireless-G Notebook adaptor 2.4GHz (802.11g) Model # [WPC54G ver 1.2] it will stay connected for a few minutes and then cut off! I know it is not the internet connection as with an ethernet connection it is fine, However using a Dell laptop with XP Pro (not XP Home as on the GRT786M) it sis fine all day long without cutting off at all using the same notebook adapter! I have tried two different sony laptops and PCMCIA Linksys wireless cards with them yet they always seem to cut off!

Is this a common occurance? Has it happened to anyone else? Can it be easily solved?

Id appreciate any input to try and solve this problem!

Cheers

You don't mention whether it is USB or PCMCIA but I would check the relevant one in Device Manager for Power Saving options.

Make sure it is in CAM mode (Continually Aware Mode).
