Whenever my laptop connects to a network, it breaks that network. It's rarely immediately, and often takes a few hours//days, but from both my linksys (usually days), to my netgear (usually hours), to my friend's netgear, and another friend's netgear. Also confirmed for my generic TRENDnet router (crashes within an hour).
Each time this happens, the router will respond to nothing but a manual reset (power off/on). The wireless card is an integrated Intel 2200BG.

Does this happen just with wifi, or does it happen when you wire in, too?

Although the laptop is rarely wired into a network, I have not noticed a router crash while it was.

Have you tried installing the latest drivers and firmware yet for your wifi card?

I thought I had the latest, but as it turns out, I only had the 1/24 revision. I installed the 3/23, and have been crash free for the past five minutes. I'll reply back if i have any more problems. Thanks!
