Yeah I am on Vista.

I found something similar called 'WLAN Autoconfig' and I clicked on 'Disable' and it didn't do anything to the game play.

Thanks for the reply!

Thanks for the reply!

Is 'polling' the correct term? And when you say it's a challenge to find this and disable it, do you know roughly where i could find it?
It's not in the 'Wireless mini-card properties' that I am aware of.

It depends on how much memory and how many features you want really.

I've got an ipod classic 80gb and it's brilliant, far better than i was expecting because i have always gone for Sony hard drive mp3 players (because i was never a fan of the old ipods) but there was not one that was offering more than 8gb memory at the time when i needed a new one.

The only complaints about the ipod classic i have is that the shiny back scratches far too easily and the headphones it comes with are very poor (sound quality and confort in your ear) but both of these can sorted quickly.

Thanks for the reply!

I cant really think of any software that will use the wi-fi, I have tried closing all the internet required programs to see if that makes a difference, but it didnt.

When I removed the battery from the laptop, LFS worked ok with the power supply plugged in but when I put the battery back in, it disconnected after about 15 seconds.

I looked at the 'Networking' tab in 'Task manager' while plugging and unplugging the power supply and it didnt 'jump'.

I tried changing the 'Minimum power consumption' to 'Disable' (i assume it is the same as the XP version of 'power saver mode' in that menu) and it didnt do anything to the wireless that i can see

Thanks for the relpy!

I put my laptop next to the router and it didnt make any difference to gameplay but i have noticed that LFS runs better on battery than on the charger for some reason that i cannot fathem.

The laptop is new, the main specs should be fine: Core 2 duo - 2ghz, 4gb ram, 256mb ati mobility radeon HD 3450, 160gb hard drive etc etc.

My old desktop pc was about a 10th of the spec of this one lol and LFS lagged a bit but it wasn't too bad so this pc should run it no problem. That pc was also on wi-fi but with a wireless adaptor.

Thanks for the reply!

I have an update on the problem; LFS seems to run ok when i have my laptop running on the battery but when i have it plugged into power it disconnects from the server after about 1 minute. I cant see how this would affect the game (or internet) when i play LFS.

I have changed my power options and there is no difference.

Hi

I can log into LFS fine and my wireless internet connection is fine but when i load up to a server (doesn't matter which one) it randomly losses connection to the server but when i want to go back into the server again it loads up fine but again it randomly disconnects for no apparent reason. I can get about 2 minutes of racing time before it disconnects, although my actual internet doesn't disconnect

I dont think this is LFS at fault because the same happens to me in COD4

Has anybody experienced the same problem as i am? If so do you have a solution?

Thanks!
