For further info, please > check the other [OS2Wireless] thread. I have a T41 and the WiFi indicator blinks mainly when data is being transferred over the link. I assume all of the blinking is when there is data on the link some of which is normal TCP or NETBIOS traffic. Occasionally I have problems with the wireless link but attribute that to a weak signal or radio interference (there are a lot of wireless devices using the same frequency as WiFi). Normally I do not have to reboot as the connection usually comes back alive after a short interval. -- Robert Blair
