  • 1.  WL110 Card Dropping Connectivity after 20 minutes of inactivity.

    Hi,

    I have a network of 15 Armarda M700's that all have the WL110 Lan PC Card installed in them.
    They are all in the same room.
    The access point is a Colubris CN300r.

    Heres my problem; After 20 minutes of inactivity the wireless connection to a laptop is dropped then immeadiatly reconnected.
    Installing a different make of card (Belkin) into one of the laptops, works fine and the connection is not dropped.

    While someone uses the laptop the connection does not drop at all.

    I have a compaq N800c with a Cisco Aeronet card, and that hasnt dropped at all.

    Q. What is causing this?
    Q. How do I rectifiy this? (apart from buying different makes of cards)
    Powersave mode is also set to Off.
    All running on AC power.

    Thanks

    Dave L

    It seems like WL110 may have a default setting that disconnects after a period of inactivity (in your case 20 minutes). It may that the WL110 goes into a standby mode to conserve battery power.

    Use the Client Manager to check if such setting is there and change it.
