no wireless

I recently installed the Vista Beta, and after installing, Vista recognized
my linksys wmp54gs wireless card as a broadcom wireless card, but the drivers
seemed to work fine, and I was able to connect to my wireless network. After
doing windows update, some additional drivers were installed, for my sound
card, tv tuner, and modem, and afer the system restarted, there was no more
wireless. I checked the device manager and it said the card was working
fine, but when I went to the networking center, no wireless networks were
being detected. I checked the back of my computer, and the light on the
wireless card is off (normally on when functioning). I've tried installing
the linksys drivers, but nothing happens. I also reinstalled Vista, and the
same thing happened, wireless right after install, after updates, nothing.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

have you tried rolling back the drivers for your sound
card, TV tuner, and modem?

Hi,
I'm having a similar problem with my wireless. I run Belkin equipment
although vista recognises the network card as broadcom it refuses to install
the drivers for it.
Having contacted Belkin they say they are working on updating the drivers to
be vista compatable, so until that time I guess I'm gonna be stuck with a
wired connection. Unless that is some one has any ideas that mey help me.
Thanks in advance

I have been having similar problems with my Linksys WMP54GS Wireless adapter.
I installed it's drivers, connected to my router, it worked fine. But about
5 mins later it disconnected from my router, the after one minute it
reconnected. It happeded again while I was downloading a file, but this time
I had to go and click the reconnect button.
Finally it died again and, I made a stupid mistake I clicked refresh
networks list, and well it didn't show any, so I'm back on XP for now.
