I picked up a Linksys wireless-g notebook adapter (WPC54G ver 2) recently
but can't get it to work properly. It has never worked right and causes my
machine to lockup as soon as it gets a connection with any significant
traffic. I have installed and reinstalled the drivers and talked to Linksys
technical support several times with no luck. I have another card (802.11b)
that I use and it works fine. The wireless-g card will connect and I can see
traffic under 100K bytes going back and forth but anything more than that
will lock the machine up. If I bring up a browser I will come up and lockup
with a minute or two. This card has worked in another laptop similar to
mine but never in mine. I tried a version 1 card like mine and that worked.
I don't know what to do at this point. Does this sound like a hardware
issue or an operating system problem. Any help is appreciated.
thanks,
Patrick
