Default Re: windows xp and wep 64bit encryption



When you're losing the connectiong intermittantly, this is probabl
after a XP security fix. Afther the fix this happens because th
Windows Zero Effort Networking (brrrr) keeps looking for ne
connections.
After you've realised a connection do the following in a Dos box "ne
stop WZCSVC". This will stop the search and keep you on-line.
Does anyone have the fix which MS has????
