Sony Vaio freezes on 5ghz network

by delta6k . Updated 16 years, 12 months ago

Running a Sony Vaio, windows XP, 1GB Ram.
Just upgraded network to Dual Band N. Linksys WRT610N, everything fine on that end. All computers run just fine with it. Then I put a Linksys WPC600N Network card in the Vaio. It works fine on the 2.4ghz band, but freezes within minutes of switching to the 5ghz band. Doesn’t matter if I switch to the 5ghz band or reboot to it. Still locks up the computer, to the point I have to hit the power button to shut it down so I can reboot. Tech support at Linksys installed the newest drivers, themselves. Any ideas is the Vaio not capaable of digesting data at that speed? Wouldn’t that be sad.
