Hi,

I recently installed XP Professional service pack 2 on my Toshiba
Satellite laptop, now in my Network Connections the little icon on the
left hand panel to detect wireless networks in the area is no longer
there. The same is the case with the taskbar. I suppose to detect
wireless networks in the area that I can connect to can be done via the
commandline. Anyone know what program and switches to call?

Cheers,
Bryan Rasmussen

Have you ensured that the Wireless Network card is activated?
(Start-Connect To-Show All Connections, right click on the Wireless Network
Card)

Hi,
Actually going through my setup I realized that in installing the
Windows Professional partition the drivers for the card did not get
installed.

Cheers




Thanks
