yes once you put the network icon on you will see when your connected
and yes it can take up to a minute to connect after the desktop loads.
and yes that can vary sometimes loads first and then next boot it mite
load last, and i have noticed when loading the network icon has the red
cross for not connected but messenger and avast are connected to the net
straight away and then the icon shows connected 30 secends later.
so you are not alone with this problem

Just want to note that I have this problem too. I found this thread
browsing for ideas. I am running Vista 32bit Ultimate and dual-booting
with XP; XP has no such problem so I believe it is a Vista-related
problem. I have looked for an alternative driver for my adapter (nVidia
nForce) from Microsoft and nVidia but no such.
It is not a timing issue; I can reboot and go away for an hour and come
back to no network. I have to not just repair the connection (reset DNS
etc.) but "reset the adapter".
Very, very annoying.

Sorry you have the same issue, but glad to hear that it is not just
me.
I have tried every suggestion offered, but the problem persists. Still
erratic, probably happens on 1 out of every 3 or 4 startups.
I plan to try a different network card, but after that I am stumped.

have you setup static ip addy or do you let vista do it automatically
also are you downloading anything on the xp machine with the ports
forwarded in the router
and next time this happens go in to the router and reboot it and see if
that fixes your connection without reseting the nic adaptor in your
machine

Router has been rebooted many many times - however not at the time of
problem, so will try that.
Thanks for the suggestions.
I have the same problem, with a slight difference I have two computers, one
was an upgrade from XP to Vista Premium and the other is a New Machine with
Vista Premium installed. Both are connected to the same Billion Modem/Router,
the old computer connects to the Internet with out any problems. The New one
has to have the Network Adapter Reset every time that I switch on to use.
It really is a pain having to do this all the time. I usually Click on
Start, then Network, then diagnose and repair. With the price they ask for
Vista, I should not really have to do this every time. We all would
appreciate some help.

Then you have not set it up correctly. Vista like XP saves the connection
details. Are you Ethernet connecting both or one on Wireless?
I suggest you start from scratch with your new Computer Lan settings. Delete
them all first.

You are not alone, I am having the same difficulty. Random disconnection from
the internet, with the resolution of having to reset the network adaptor. I
purchased a brand new HP a couple of weeks ago with Vista ultimate pre
installed.
This issue is driving me crazy. I have tried the official solution
"1. Open Network Connections by clicking the Start button , clicking
Control Panel, clicking Network and Internet, clicking Network and Sharing
Center, and then clicking Manage network connections.
2. Right-click the connection, and then click Properties. If you are
prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or
provide confirmation.
3. On the Networking tab, click Configure.
4. On the Power Management tab, clear the Allow the computer to turn off
this device to save power check box, and then click OK."
But that doesn't work either. After seeing all the posts regarding this
issue, what has Microsoft got to say?

I have the same problem, but with a variation. I "lose" the ethernet adaptor
every time I exit "sleep" mode. Reseting the adaptor has always resolved the
problem, but what a pain. So far I have not had any problem at bootup. Go
figure!

I have exactly the same problem. About half the time or more, after a reboot
I've got no network connectivity. The only solution I've found is to do
Diagnose and Repair, Obtain New IP Address, wait for it to time out, then
Reset Network Adapter. This is extemely tedious and annoying.
Did anyone find a solution to this problem?
As a work around, does anyone know how to automate the reset network adapter
command, using scripting or any other method?
Thanks - Rowan
