    Acer Aspire 3023 Problem enabling "radio" for built in broadcom wi

    Hi,

    I have an Acer Aspire 3023 which has a built in broadcom 802.11g wireless
    card. The driver is installed by Vista during setup and shows correctly in
    the device manager but I cannot activate the antenna.

    There is a button on the front of the laptop which is used to switch on the
    antenna but when I run the troubleshooter and it asks me to turn the antenna
    on all I get is a beep when I press the antenna button.



    I have tried the XP driver and its a no go, I have also tried to install
    acer's launchmanager software which (on XP) enables the wireless at startup,
    this also fails to run.

    I went into the drivers settings to see if there was a "radio on/off"
    setting but the options in the driver are pretty sparse with no settings
    relating to the antenna.

    I used a PCMCIA wireless card and this runs perfectly but I realy want to
    use the built in card.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Cheers

    Chris
