Hi,

Aresuming from standby, my pc, wired to the router, takes 20-30 seconds
to connect to the internet.


I have the same problem only from bootup. Three computers from a Linksys
8-port router have the problem. Have to wait 20 seconds until computer
icons come up in system tray. Also unable to bring up Start | Connect To
box. Checked Task Manager and it is sitting at 99% idle but it sounds like
HDD is churning. I can run IPConfig and get proper readings but no
connection.

XP Pro fully updated.
Perplexed
