    Vista + Netgear WPN311 Wireless problem

    I bought new rig recently, put it all together and its working fine -

    except my wireless...

    My router Netgear WPN842 v2 is working quite good with my brothers PC and my old laptop. No problems whatsoever.

    My new PC is running on Vista. Installed latest drivers for my wireless card WPN311 and router.
    Both drivers with support for Vista. Its has been few weeks now and I cannot connect with Vista
    to my wireless network.
    I sought help with Netgear Support online with no results.

    Can you help me with current configuration to get access to my network?

    I doubt it becouse I recon there is a problem with WPN311 drivers still for Vista and it wont work
    until they update it with full support for Vista (108Mbps for WPN311 is not supproted in Vista).

    Or can you advise me what another wireless card I can get with full Vista support.
    I want quick decent card...

    Many thanks

    Sebastian

    I had a belkin f5d7000 and it dropped all the time. the wpn311 has been much more reliable (vista 32).

    Although it did used to freeze my asrock mobo so couldnt use it again till i got a new mobo.

    Yes, I was thinking about G+ from Belkin - F5D7001. I have Belkin in my laptop as well
    as on my brothers PC and they working fine. Also most of Belkin products support
    Vista unlike Netgear. I am about Vista 64.

    Cheers
