Windows 7 Wireless networking
Atul has been regularly blogging about Windows 7 many good features and few issues. Here's something that found very good. Could not test it earlier as I was having issues with broadband connection at home. Those have been fixed now.
Good news is Wireless works seamlessly between office and home. This used to be an issue with Vista, where in i had to change the IP settings for office and home. I connected my laptop to wirless broadband at home, it automatically got the IP address. I didn't event have to change the browser proxy settings. Internet just works. Got into office, thinking I had to change the settings and enable/disable the wireless adapter. Just resumed the windows and logged onto the domain. I get a window asking me to choose which group I belong to. Selected Work and the wireless connection just works. This used to such a chore everyday morning while shuttling between home and office.

Naveen, good to know that it worked for you. As I shared here http://www.infosysblogs.com/microsoft/2009/09/win_7_network_adapter_problem.html, the only issue i found is network detection post hibernation.

Thanks Atul. It works well post Hibernation for me. I tested it over past few days. I also use Dell XPS M 1330.
