Acer Aspire 3623 Wireless Driver

I just installed the last Built (5384) of Windows Vista in one of my laptops.
Only two devices were not recognized. Sound card and Wireless Adapter. The
sound card was a manual process and now is up and running.

My problem is the Wireless adapter, I've already installed the driver (for
WinXP) and it doesn't work. The card has ATHEROS 5005 Chip and the model is:
Foxconn Wireless 802.11bg (Atheros chipset)

I found this link in other forums, but looks like it's down.

Any suggestion to make it work???

Regards,

RE: Acer Aspire 3623 Wireless Driver

The link seems to be back up.
I'm using an Aspire 5044 with the same Atheros AR5005G wireless adapter.
Now, the weird thing is, Vista has the drivers and everything installed BUT
since I cannot use the front button on my laptop to turn ON the adapter, the
adapter remained "OFF" and cannot detect any signals. I need help on this.
