revilist,   What happens when you use these Recommended Wireless Router Settings in your wireless router?   Also try this...     Go to device manager(right click my computer, left click properties, left click hardware, left click device manager). Click on Network and then right click on your wireless adapter, left click properties, power management. Uncheck the box, allow computer to turn off this device to save power.   What happens?

I have just purchased a 1537 with Intel WiFi Link 5100 802.11a/g/n Draft Mini Card. The previous model 1535 with a dell card did not have any problem maintaining connection to the wireless router, but this one does. Everything is the same on the router, 128 bit WEB and MAC address filtering. The 1537 is running Vista OS. The connection drops problem is worsen when using the laptop away from the router. I had no problem with distance from the router using the old 1535 with Dell 1397 802.11B/G Wireless. Can you help.. thanks.
