| | Unknown Wireless Network Just done a clean install of Vista Home Ultimate. All works perfectly apart for the network. I use a Linksys WUSB54GS and I have no wired network in the room I am using this computer in. There are Vista drivers for the device and it install Ok. It connects to a Linksys WAP54G access point (or it should). The PC detects the network Ok and I select private network and type in my WEP key (I use 128bit WEP as there are some other devices on the network that only use that) When looking at the networks I am connected to it gives me the one I want but also another "unidentified network" These two are one and the same as if I connect disconnect on either both go. I can browse the LAN from the PC but cannot connect to the internet. When I run the trouble shooter it tell me I am connected to two networks and to disconnect from one! Any ideas? |

| | Re: Unknown Wireless Network Maybe I misunderstood the question and your connection setup; but it sounds like you have both the device manufacturer's software AND Vista wireless network manager connecting you. Use one or the other as they may conflict. -- A Professional Amateur...If anyone knew it all, none of would be here!
