DW1520 WLAN card

Question

Hi, I'm trying to upgrade my Mini 1012 WLAN to 802.11.n so have removed the 1397 card and replaced with a DW1520. I have downloaded drivers from the Dell download site and installed.  I am running Windows 7 32bit Home Premium. The card is listed as functioning correctly etc in device manager. However, under Network and Sharing Centre \ change adapter settings the card is shown as disabled and will not enable (despite the dialogue box stating that it has enabled the card). Under Windows diagnostics it states that  'There might be problem with the  network connection adapter – Windows couldn’t automatically bind the IP protocol stack to the network adapter' I have tried various different driver packages from the Dell download centre (not sure why so many - all state Win 7 32 bit) R228550 / R228532 / R228552 / R252544. I have contacted to seller of the card to discover if faulty. Am I missing something, doing something wrong or is the card likely to be faulty? Thanks for any help   Simon
