I need some help guys (and girls :-s)

I'm trying to get my wireless connection to work. I'm able to connect one time with my AP, but when i restart my laptop or I disconnect i'm not able to regain access with my AP

Further i'm not able to restore my Wireless connection, because i get an error that says (something like) I can not restore because de wirelessadapter cannot be shutdown, please reinstall the adapter.

No this is where i lost it. In the list of the device manager the following adapters are shown. ( I show only the miniports)

- am1772 wireless lan chipset - miniport
- Intel pro wireless xxx network connection - miniport
- Broadcom 10/100 integrated controller - miniport

I don't know what the am1772 wireless lan chipset is for, but i can't uninstall it.

So far that i know I only have the broadcom (ethernet) and the intel pro (wireless)

Can anybody explain what the am1772 is for, and how to remove it from my laptop. I've tryed to install 2 cardbuses to the laptop, does this contributed to this fault??

I hope someone can help me.
I'm from the netherlands so i apologise for my bad english.


Thanks mark

I'd refer to documentation...find out which adapter your laptop has....and make sure you have the latest drivers for your wireless NIC.

Thnx a lot, but i didn't fixed the problem. Because i'm a very impatience person ;-) I used a radicale method. I,ve used an image to return my laptop to it's early configuration.......and the am1772 was gone :-D

I'm still not able to connect a second time to my router, but now i'm finally able to reset the d*mn thing :-D

Anyway thnx for your suggestion and your link.
