hey has anyone firgured out why the hell the Lan ports drop out after coming out of suspend?! its driving me freaking crazy, a reboot fixes the issue. I turned off "let computer turn off device to save power" , installed the latest realtek drivers dated from july. Still no dice

I may just order one of those Rosewill pci-e nic cards..more bandwidth anyway

any ideas on this issue with nic though..

thanks
Try disabling in bios setup, the unused Lan port.
No problems, using the 5.673.712.2007 (WinXP) driver dated 7/12/2007.
