hi guys im runnin a dell inspiron 6400 dual core with media centre edition

my problem is that my wireless connection is dropped everytime i switch
user. If I just click switch user and go back to the same account the
connection is not lost. But if i switch user and log into another account the
first account gets disconnected and the second account connects. I dont have
this problem on my other 2 desktops just my laptop. Im just wondering
shouldnt it be possible to run the connection through several users on the
same pc. Thank you for your time and input.

Hi
I do not know a direct answer.
However if it happened to me I would look start by looking at the power
saving system of the laptop.
Might be that it put something in saving mode that drops the Wireless.
