X60 wireless adaptor seems to turn on and off

[IBM_X31]

Sorry for double posting, I just found the post discussing this issue at http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=30098

Hi, my x60 wireless adaptor (Intel card) seems to be turning itself off after about 5 minutes. Then, I have to go into the systray and click click on the IBM access connections and turn it back on. Does anyone know why this is happening?

I am also wondering about the durability of the exposed external wireless switch on the front of the computer. Anyone have any problems with this switch?

Thanks
