Hi folks,
I have a new (two weeks old) laptop which is wonderful BUT the wifi connection drops for just a few seconds every so often. It only ever does it when on the battery mode never when plugged into the mains. Could the power saving settings be responsible? If so what should I set them to?

Try changing the power settings of the wi-fi adaptor so it doesn't go to sleep.0
