I have a HP pavilion dv6250eu and since upgrading to Vista I have a problem
reconnecting to my Belkin wireless router after sleep/hibernate.
It seems that Vista cannot handle a change in IP address on the same local
network.
If I take my laptop to any location with a different wireless then
connection is fully automatic. Returning ot my home location and that is now
OK. I have seen a thread on this topic elsewhere but cannot find it. I hae
tried all upgrades and either they are not applicable or already applied.
Has anyone any ideas?
