Silly question, but on my wireless setup (WinXP Pro, all three PC's), if I
have SSID enabled, I connect for about 10-15 minutes. After this time I get
disconnected, and have to reconnect.

Has anyone seen anything like this, or am I missing a step in my setup?

Hi

Usually it is a result of environmental interferes (like 2.3GHz Phones).

Otherwise make sure that at least one Wireless is configured correctly and
put it for a while next to the source.

Try it with WZC and if it persists switch Off WZC, and try it with the
original Brand util.

Thank you very much Jack. I've reviewed your site too, excellent. As a test
for my wireless network, what software could I use to test it "properly"?

If you have a linksys router you can use their website: linksys.com/check to
see if you have a problem. Beware if you configure your network wrong
tcp/ip, client,server , etc.. and wireless configuration. Sometime linksys
will pass the test as nothing wrong.
Theres lots of tihings can mess up your connection... best advcie is to read
linksys post online.

Always reboot the modem as the first diagnostic step. Let it sit
unpowered for a minute to clear the internal MAC address table, often
required when connecting new equipment to the modem. Repower, then
reboot the router when the modem is fully booted. See if this helps.
