Just wondering if anyone else is using a Linksys Wireless-B USB Network Adapter. It runs most thing fine except when using BitTorrent, after which it will randomly stop working and requires that you unplug it and plug it back in.

When I first started using BT it would stay connected overnight but now after a week it started disconnecting at random intervals while running BT. I believe it's an issue with the hardware and I'm planning on testing with another company's PCI adapter. In the meantime, I'd recommend against Linksys' wireless USB adapter.

The Linksys router isn't the problem because the computer connected to the router has no connection issues, just the adapter in my room.

Edit: More specific system specs
PIII-450 mhz, 128 Ram, Win98SE
