Re: Wireless & Vista

Hi all, thanks for the replies.

Ok, firstly, I checked my wireless status, and all is fine - there is a switch on the front, which lights up when it is it, but additionally the laptop is picking up the wireless connection, but only 'Local Access'.

Tried re-entering the WEP key over and over again, this doesn't resolve it either. Apparently this is happening to a lot of people, so i consulted the Microsoft website and they advised me to change the power management, to ensure wireless is 'always on'. Again, no joy.

Tried the diagnose and repair option, Windows is saying it can't find the issue.

I am running Windows Vista Home basic. My laptop is this one.

Am really at a loss. Have Googled endlessly and loads of people have this problem, but there doesn't seem to be a resolve.

It happened when it went into sleep mode, but as I haven't been able to get back on since, don't know if this is what caused the issue - it had never happened previously when going into to sleep mode.

Am totally stumped
