Wireless networking on a Toshiba M200

Posted: 06-01-2006, 06:14 PM
Has anyone been able to make the Atheros AR5001X (built in) card connect to a
wireless network. The hardware installs correctly in Device Manager, but the
wizard says there are no wireless networks to connect to.

If I try to create a manual connection, it asks for the adapter, and then
the next screen just says "an unexpected error occured"

Any suggestions would be welcomed

you might give the XP drivers a go.

I am having the same issue but with Tecra M2. It used to work fine with Beta1
Also I have two hard drives, one for XP and other for Vista, if I POP the XP
drive, the same adapter connects fine, while on Vista it does not even show
any signal strength, let alone connecting to the network

Is this still a driver problem or something else?????
