Wireless goes off when unplugged

Hello - I have an Acer Aspire 1410 that drops the wireless connection
when unplugged. I have gone into power management a bit but the DC
areas (which includes "entertainment, word processing, etc) is grayed
out so I can't change things. I am the only account on the PC and am
administrator. Am I missing something. So frustrating.

Thank you,
bec

Well, I had a similar problem and we called our internet provider and they came out and added something to our modem to give it more power and now it works fine.

Hope this helps.
