Mobility Site - View Single Post - Should ActiveSync disrupt my laptop wireless connection?

I recently bought an i-mate Jamin PDA/Phone which natively runs Windows Mobile 2005.

I'm aware that ActiveSync doesn't allow the syncing over a wireless connection, but should ActiveSync disrupt my laptops wireless connection when syncing over a USB cable to the device? Even after syncing, I can't get my laptop to re-establish a connection with the access point, and it requires a reboot.

I think I've read that ActiveSync may disable wireless on the mobile device, but I havn't read anything about the host computer.

This is really annoying, and as I result I've been avoiding syncing the device.

I just want to rule out ActiveSync before I go trying to diagnose a fault that might be one of those great 'features'.
