Unable to connect to wireless after installing Windows SP3?
Hi All,
Just installed SP3 last night on desktop computers here and can't connect to wireless router now. Any ideas what would cause this problem? Possible fixes?
Thanks!

Hi Steve,
I have the CD here with the drivers on it, but am not sure how to install them?
Thanks!

If you tell me which model computer you have and which wireless network adapter is on the computer, I can point you to the file on the Dell download site. Once you get that file to the computer, all you have to do is run it to install the drivers.

Try reinstalling the drivers for your wireless network adapter.

Hi Steve,
It's a Netgear adapter... I just found a CD for it, could I use that and if so how? I don't use the software that came with it, but the drivers would be on the CD.

The Dimension 2400 is a desktop computer. I serioulsy doubt that those would have come standard with wireless network adapters. Did you purchase the wireless adapters after you bought the computers? In any event, the drivers would likely be on a separate CD that is specific to the wireless network adapter. Which wireless network adapter do you have?

Hi Steve,
Both computers are Dimension 2400 model. Would the drivers be on the CDs that came with the computers? I have no way to get the file on the other computer, as it only has CDrom drive on it. If they're on the CDs that came with the machine, I might be able to reinstall on the other computer, and get online to update it.
Thanks again!

Open the CD. It should have documentation that will tell you how to install the drivers.
