Does anyone have any idea why my Vista can't find my WLAN? My Mac G5 find it
under a second, my laptop with XP the same but my Vista after 10 minutes...! It reports a lot of WLANs in the area (4) I have search through the Vista after any settings, no luck, tried to change the security, channels, keys etc etc settings in my router (Linksys WRT54GS), it didn't help either. I'm broadcasting the SSID. Any suggestions? |

Did you get them from the vendor? http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/08/driver-updates-from-microsoft-please.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...ft-please.html Do you have only one WiFi client manager running? http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/01/stabilise-your-wifi-use-only-one-wifi.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/0...-one-wifi.html Check the WiFi connection Properties - Configure - Advanced tab, and make sure that Power management is set to the highest level, to start. http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/09/network-adapter-settings-wizard.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/0...gs-wizard.html -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP 2005-2007 [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
