== Fixing the ICMPv6 Spam==
When these machines sleep, they begin to spam the network with ICMPv6 packets.  It seems that when 2 or more go to sleep, there is enough spam to disable wifi.
This fix is to install version 19 or later of the Intel Network Driver, available at \\fizzle\san\Intelnetworkdriver\ProW.exe (HEFTODO: get the correct link)
