Looses connection

Hi there, I am using Dell Axim5 with the True mobile WLAN card.
I use a Speedstream router that is picked up pretty well by other PC's in my
home.
My problem is when I tap into this with my Axim, it works for a few minutes
and then
the signal is lost.  I seem to only have this inconsistancy when I use my
Axim.
Could my Truemobile be the cause of loosing this signal.
Any help would be great.

Unfortunately I can't offer you a solution.

I've got a similar problem: I am using a Medion MD 40600 (ppc 2003)
with a SanDisk SD WiFi card, and everything works well for a few
minutes and then I lose my connection.

If I continue trying my Sitecom Accesspoint (WL-006) hangs and has
to be rebooted.

I conducted a small ping experiment:
- I started pinging (-t) both the PDA and the Access Point
  from another PC on the network in parallel
- after ca 70 pings I get a timeout on the PDA
- the Access Point continues to reply and gives me a timeout after
  some 200 successful pings

I have tried the SanDisk SD WiFi drivers for both PPC 2002 and 2003,
but the result is the same.

I have two laptops connected to the wireless network, but I have
never encountered any problems of this type.

This seems to suggest that it is a PPC problem rather than a problem
with the PDA, the WLAN card or the access point.

The problem has gone away. I still don't know what it was, but
after I had reinstalled the firmware of the access point everything
worked the way it should.

The firmware was exactly the same version I had before, but somehow
the reinstall made the problem go away!
