To be honest, I don't follow this exactly as I've been lightly scanning this thread. I have a T42 with built in wireless. (168C:1014) and have SpeedStep Enabled in bios and I DON'T have a problem connecting (etc) running on battery or AC. My power mode for Battery is [Maximum Battery Life] and customize [Fixed Max] [5 minutes] [5 minutes] [3 minutes] for those fields. Mode for AC [Automatic] and mode for battery [battery optimized]. Many other fields are enabled too.... Is the problem only with certain wireless cards (such as the Toshiba branded Mini_PCI card) or supposedly in general?
