When out driving, every now and then an AP gets "stuck." NS just keeps pinging like it is still seeing it, but there is no way. Either it is too far or behind a hill/bldg/etc.

I stop it from scanning for a couple seconds and hit the play button again, and the AP is no longer pinging. Why does it do that and how can I keep it from doing it?

It does it on both of my computers (HP and Dell) and I could not find anything by searching the threads on the subject. I've disabled by TCP/IP thinking it was trying to acquire an IP, but it still does it.

Thanks.
