tweaking intel 3945abg

[Guest]

Anyone have any suggested tweaks of Intel 3945GM wireless ?

I'm using Vista RTM (official from MSDN)

I have a Belkin Pre-N Router as well

Also, how do I reset both wireless and Ethernet settings back to factory
default?

Sony Vaio Centrino / Core 2 Duo / 2GB Memory
Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection
Intel® PRO/100 VE Network Connection
Driver: 10.6.0.15
Vista Ultimate RTM
Belkin Pre-N Router

I'm having problems with this wireless system too. I have a Netgear Cable
Router (WGT624) which works on Channel 6. I bought a new laptop a couple of
days back (a Fujitsu-Siemems Amilo Pi1105) which has the same wireless card
in it and I tried for hours trying to get it to connect. There are some new
drivers which have been recently released which might work for you, but which
didn't do a thing for me. I have spoken to both Fujitsu-Simens tech support
and Netgear's technical support, but in all honesty I had tried just about
everything which they talked me through anyway. In the end the Netgear
support person just disconnected the call, which made me quite annoyed.

All this on Windows XP Media Centre Ed. on the laptop, so they can't even
say it is down to non-compatible drivers.

PS. It works fine too if I plug in a Netgear USB wireless adaptor into the
laptop and install the Netgear software.
