Hi friends,

Previously i had windows XP installed on my laptop and it was working awesome with my Atheros AR5005G Wireless Network Adapter. yesterday i just upgraded to windows Vista 64-bit but from then my card is giving problem to me . I downloaded the driver of my card for Windows Vista and in device manager and properties tab its showing that my card is working fine but then why i can't access any network ? Please help me as early as possible. thanks in advance.

Try this driver. Are you sure all settings are correct ? Have you restarted after installing the Vista drivers?

Many mobile PCs have a wireless switch on the front or side of the computer. Check your computer for a switch. If you do have a switch, make sure it's turned on. Some computers also use a function key combination to turn the switch on or off. Check the information that came with your computer for details on locating the wireless switch. refer this guide for more info http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...376c21033.mspx
