Unfortunately, many drivers for wireless are ONLY available on
Windows Update for Vista. This means that you have to have a wired connection, establish connectivity to the Internet with the wireless NIC in the machine (and turned on, if applicable). Sometimes the driver is immediately offered automatically, sometimes you need to run update driver from device manager. Please report back if you are able to install it this way On Sun, 20 May 2007 01:09:00 -0700, Mstevens wrote: did a clean install of MS Vista Ultimate (previously I ran Windows XP without problems).

Wireless LAN PCI Card Asus WL-138G not recognized/ IEEE 802.11g 54
My WL-138g did not work at all (even through Windows Update).
ASUS also didn't have drivers for it (while it had for WL-138g V2 or gE). Forum seach showed that the issue is in Marvell chip used in it which has no Vista driver. For 32-bit Vista it was possible to install XP driver, but it worked unstable (in terms of connection). For 64-bit Vista the XP64 driver did not load as unsigned. When signing disabled, it also worked strange... The best solution I found was to replace the card with another one "Barb Bowman" сообщил/сообщила в новостях следующее: ...

Received answer from ASUS :
The drivers will be available in a few weeks. Till that time you can use the built-in wireless drivers of Windows Vista. Please search online for the driver during installation process. It will install "Marvell Libertas". Installed the Marvell Libertas but that did not solve the problem. Reported this but no answer back from ASUS. So waiting or buying another wireless card. Any suggestions : good wireless network wards for Vista ? "Mstevens" wrote: Yep, logged a case yesterday via ASUS website. Waiting for an answer.... Will post the answer here.
