I have a problem with my D-Link DNS-323 and my Vista Home Premium computer.
The connection is 10/100 (with D-Link 707P router) and the file transfer speed is reasonable. The problem that I am experiencing is a very slow transfer rate (almost no transfer rate at all) when my computer wakes up from sleep (hibernation) mode. I have to restart the computer to have the connection restored to the DNS-323. The computer is a dual boot system with a Windows XP Professional on the other hard drive. I have not experienced this slow transfer rate issue after wake up from sleep (hibernation) mode with Windows XP Professional operating system---just with Vista.
I would appreciate any help to solve this problem.

Probably has something to do with the new network junk in Vista.

sgip2000 - thanks for the link, but the problem still exists.

I've noticed that Vista takes a long time to re-enable the network after waking from sleep. Maybe there's some network services still running that consume some overhead.
Sounds more like a Vista bug than that of the DNS-323.

That can also be due to using network drivers that are:
1) Designed for Windows XP
2) 32-bit Unsigned Drivers
3) 32/64-bit driver that's signed but not WHQLed
4) Out of date / Has bugs
5) BIOS bug when resuming from S3/S1
If possible, try to go to the vendor of your computer and update the network driver or the manufacturer of the part and get a reference drive. Make sure the drivers are both *signed* and *WHQL*ed.
