you may want to update the Windows driver (in the wrapper) to the
latest build. These cards suffer (on all platforms utilizing the
Windows driver) from dropout and stall conditions which Intel has
addressed in the more recent drivers.
Would you happen to have a link to the latest Windows driver?
Surely: http://tinyurl.com/2zxchn.
The above link will take you to the main download page for the Intel 2915ABG. The latest (as of this writing) driver only package is 9.0.4.26, dated 11/30/2006 (the driver itself - not the package - is dated 10/25/2006). You'll need to unpack the driver and replace (backup first, naturally) W29N51.INF and W29N51.SYS in the WRAPPER_8086_4224 (or 4223, depending upon your chipset) subdirectory under genmac\driver and reboot.
