D-link DWL 650+ doesn't detect networks

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Hi Folks,

I'm having problems with my D-link DWL-650+. I have this PCMCIA card installed in a Toshiba Satellite A10-SP129. The 650+ isn't detecting the 802.11b network in the area, which is WEP encrypted. I have another card, a Proxim Orinoco Gold 8420-WD, which detects and connects to the network just fine.

I've installed the latest d-link driver. I've tried finding the network using windows, and using the d-link software.

There is only one network in the area, but i doubt it would see the others if they existed.

Any ideas? Am I dealing with a dead card here, or is there something i can do in xp sp2?

thanks,
allie
