It isn't on the list to be supported.

I wondered if that was the reason

It does seem to install properly though - i.e. it picks up the broadcom
drivers supplied with Vista
and in device manager it says there are no problems with the device

Have you tried using your XP drivers?

I think that has worked

Replaced the default windows supplied driver with that off the linksys
website, and am not gettting any more disconnections.
I suspect it was due to fluctuations in the quality of the wireless
connection between the wireless network card and the router.
