Thanks I'll give it a try.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
It takes approx. 1 hour (sometimes longer; no lie) for our users to login/logoff to the network (domain) using their wireless laptops.<br />
The laptops: Windows XP<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter<br />
The network: Windows 2000 Server using Active Directory and Roaming profiles.<br />
<br />
I'm not sure what the wireless access point is, but I don't think it matters &nbsp;because we have serveral, most different, and all have the same issue.<br />
If an administrator ( NO roaming profile) logs in/off to the same laptop; same wireless points, it logs in/off in less than 30 sec.<br />
<br />
I am convinced this is a roaming profiles/syncronization problem, but just don't know where to begin to look.<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance<br />

Slow login using roaming profiles and wireless laptop

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
