jkandra Posted October 30, 2005 CID Share Posted October 30, 2005 Thats a B- router so you have to use the B-wireless card. I think it should still see the card. Do you still have the cd that came with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkandra Posted October 30, 2005 CID Share Posted October 30, 2005 The manual says that you need the Cd to configure the drivers. (IMPORTANT for Windows XP users:) It also says that Windows XP users has a built in configuration tool. It says to use the Windows XP Wireless Zero Configuration in the system tray at the bottom of your screen to configure the card. After installing the card, the windows XP Wireless Zero Config. icon will appear in the bottom in system tray. Double click the icon. Then a screen will appears showing available wireless network. Select the network and click the Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swimmer Posted October 30, 2005 CID Share Posted October 30, 2005 All you need to do is download the latest drivers from Linksys.. and then you can used the windows zero config service.. If you have sp2 i would highly recommend it.. if not either get sp2 and download their utility for wifi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
