Morning and merry christmas to all...

I've just installed Vista build 5231 on my Centrino laptop but cannot get any connection to my wireless AP. Connecting to a cable port however works perfectly. It's not the wireless adapter on my laptop as that works fine with XP

At this stage therefore, I don't know whether this latest version of Vista simply doesn't support wireless networking, or whether I simply haven't configured it right. Vista recognises and configures the wireless hardware and I have the icon in the system tray. It is simply unable to detect any wireless networks.

It may well simply be the build version.

As it is still in beta then some elements may simply be turned off until the next version.

Happy Chrimbo!

 

Phil, have you tried using the wireless utility than comes with the wireless adapter rather than letting Vista handle the connection process?
