Wireless Adapter prob

[Pepper]

Wireless adapter isnt connecting to the internet. It was before, but no more.
Hard line works fine. Ttoubleshooting indicates "This computer does not have
wireless network adapter installed and configured". When you search the
drivers, etc..everything checks out. Any idea if this is a VISTA or Microsoft
problem?

I'm having the same problem with my notebook. I recently wiped the
entire harddrive due to some issues, then reinstalled Vista using the
disk that came with the notebook (Gateway MT6730). The networking
utility was working just fine before the wipe, but now it doesn't,
despite my having downloaded and installed the latest drivers for my
wireless card (Realtek Ethernet Adapter RTL8101E; I had to get the
drivers using my desktop computer, burn them to a CD, and transfer
them to the notebook that way). Any help with this problem? It's
apparent I'm not the only one experiencing it.

Spent hours trying different drivers, why? did they not have any vista
drivers on the gateway site for your model?
