Hi all

Anyone having trouble with this?
We have a client where Vista client laptops frequently pops off and on the wired LAN. Sometimes the new DHCP request fails and the pc stays disconnected. Later you can reestablish connection.

We located this:

with links to these:

and as the client often use sleep mode for the laptops:

The router is an older Zywall so the KB article may apply  haven't check that yet - but I wonder if anyone have some other ideas?
