Sure. I'll assume you have Windoze XP Home or Pro.
1. Disable 802.1x.
2. Disable the "power save" feature on your unspecified wireless
router.
3. Disable Super-G Turbot mode in the DI-624.

4. Do you see other networks on your laptop? If so, find a channel
(1, 6, or 11) that they're NOT using.

It's not original, although I was one of the first to use it.
Type Windoze into Google and it shows 278,000 hits.

Hi. I am using di-624+, and it also drops my connection intermittingly
through out the day. I have just setup voice over broadband and its
very fustrating. im not sure what the difference between your 624 and
my 624+ but the screen shots on your link above do not match mine.
can you please give me step by step instructions on how to disable the
802.1x, power save, and disable super-g

Thanks
