I am in the process of re-installing my PPC via hard reset.

In the past, if my wifi is on, I can turn of my PPC and the wifi would disconnect. When I turn my PPC back on, the wifi would restart.

Since I did a hard reset --- I turn off my PPC while the wifi is on, the wifi disconnects like it should. When I turn my PPC back on, the wifi won't come back. If I try to turn it on, it won't turn on until I do a soft-reset.

If I turn off the wifi before turning off the PPC, then I am fine.

Thoughts?

That has always been an issue i think. Sometimes it works fine others it causes lockups and sometimes if you leave it on when you turn off the pda it will run in the background and cause the pda to get very warm and drain the battery. BT doesn't seem to cause this problem. Not sure there is a fix for it unless Dell decided to do something but I wouldn't hold your breath on it.

My issues were caused with SPB backup 1.5.5

After verifying this several times, I went back to using SPB backup 1.5.1 which works much better for me.

I thought you guys might like to know.
