Maurice, what are the parameters on your $ICPMOS2 line in OCNFIG.SYS, and what is its position within the file (it should be the last PCMCIA driver loaded, and usually works well when it is near the end of CONFIG proper. Also, what version is the file?

If you waken the system from sleep, and then pull the card and reinsert, it doesn't wake up? If this is the case, then I'm even more inclined to suspect the PCMCIA stack than the NIC driver.

My wifi connection works. Adapter is a NetGear 401 adapter, driver is genprism v.2 RC4. I'm using wlanstat.exe ver 1.11 . Wlanstat.exe is more than a monitor, as we know. Nevertheless the network connection works even when wlanstat.exe is not running (if I exit from the famously small icon). However I usually let it run.

After a few days away from the desk (the TP600E in sleep mode) I come back.
The network does not connect. After a few attempts, I reboot. Everything comes up and works, including the wifi connection. But there is something new: the disk is accessed about once every 0.5 second without a stop. Seems to come from wlanstat.exe, since disk access stops if I turn off wlanstat.exe. If I keep wlanstat.exe running, I can stop disk access by pulling out the adapter, but of course this kills the connection!

No change after a reboot.

Does anyone have an explanation?  TIA
