VPN & Wireless

Anyone know why I have a problem?

Linksys WRT54GS Wireless-GG Broadband Router (includes something called "speedboost), has 4 wired ports ethernet ports, plus wireless (obviously)

Laptop has Linksys WPC54GS Wireless-G Notebook Adapter (PCMIA card also with Speedbooster). 100% signal achieved (lappy being tested only 2 metres from router).

Lappy runs Win XP Pro SP2, fully patched, connecting using VPN to my office's Windows SBS2000 server (on which I have full remote access admin rights). Home connection is ntl cable 300kbps (cheapskate I know), work is 1Mbps ADSL Claranet.

Connection runs fine for transfer of multiple files if I plug the lappy into ethernet on the router. Connection drops if I use the wireless after around a minute).

Any thoughts?

Have you tried altering the Band/Channel that the router is operating on? It's possible that it is causing problems.

This can be done from the Router Control Panel but you will need to reboot the Laptop afterwards and reconnect for it to register the change.
