Vista Screen Saver and Wireless Networking

When my Vista laptop goes to screen saver it will lose its wireless internet
connection. When I exit screen saver it typically takes like 5 minutes for
it to reconnect to the Netgear Wireless router and get Internet
connectivitiy. Is this a Vista issue (I dont have this issue with my 2 XP
PC's)? Any sugestions?

I adjusted it and it did not work. The PC is not going into sleep mode nor
hibernation. The Screen Saver simply comes on and when I type the password
to exit the screen saver the PC will blink a second and then lose the
wireless connection. In like 3 to 5 minutes the wireless connection comes
back. Could this be a Firewall issue? I have Norton 360 on this laptop.
