Connection problem

I have a new Acer 5610 running vista premium. I replaced a win98se desktop
on my network with this laptop. Also have a winXP desktop on this wired
network. I have dsl and am running a westell 6100 with built in router and a
hawking 4-port switch. My problem is the acer will not stay connected to
internet and when problem occcurs it also stops connection of the xp
computer.

Was wondering if anyone else has a similar setup and could advise me where
to start to find a solution to this problem. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Hi Budgie,

I do not have a setup like that, but it does sound familiar from what I
see in some other posts. You might try these steps at this link below
to see if it might be a Auto Tuning issue with your router and Vista.
