Slow Bootup since wireless adapter
I have a new Fujitsu Laptop running XP home and have installed a Netgear 802.11g wireless adapter. I am using a D-link wireless router. Everything connects ok and took just a few minutes to set-up. However the system now takes in excess of 5 minutes to boot up.
Even when the system has booted it runs slow for a few minutes.
If I take the adapter out it boots ok. I have tried another adapter and that is the same. However both my adapters work in my other laptop (running XP pro).
I have updated the latest firmware, made no difference.
I have tried disabling DHCP and using a static IP address.
Fujitsu are next to useless, saying it's not hardware related so nothing they can do.
