Strange Wi-Fi behavior

Wen I have power save mode on for the Wi-Fi card I can cruise the internet, with no problems. But if I try to do a wireless ActiveSync it won't hold the connection. Anyone else have this problem?

In ActiveSync on the PPC (while not connected), in Tools, Options; make sure the box "When synchronizing remotely with my PC, disconnect when complete" is not checked.

Everything is set up correctly, but if powersave is being used it seems to drop connection. Real strange cause with it enabled I can stay connected for hours.

I have the same issue but only found out because of this thread! I had previously posted in the wireless forum and was totally stumped about how to get things working. Now that I turned off the power save mode, it works perfectly.

Before the ROM upgrade I couldn't stay connected with Wi-Fi at all. After the Uprade I could stay connected via Wi-Fi for ever. But when it came to ActiveSync it won't even connect with powersave on. So I tend to believe it is a joint problem with both ActiveSync and the power save dll.
