Hey guys...

I seem to be having a strange problem in my network... I ping my DNS server and I keep getting far too many "Request Timed out"!! more than 50% packet loss!! This makes surfing the internet a pain!

I got a specialist from my work place to have a look at it, he said its nothing to do with the network itself, since no one else is having this problem, its likely to be related to the drivers and the way your computer is trying to authenticate itself to the network...!

I know he's got a point, because logging into my MAC OS shows no problem at all in my network pinging! I tried to change my authentication protocol once WPA ans WPA2 and no difference :(

Is anyone else having this problem in Windows XP? Anyone managed to solve it?
I'm running Boot Camp 2.2 Build 1545... and My XP is genuine ;)

Thanks
HannaH
