I'm usually the techy, so I'll let someone else onto the playground. Dell Pavillion laptop. DV2000 series, I turned on the feature in the driver to make it always stay on and not power down, losing the network, due to previous problems. Power saving feature, I assumed that was taking the network down.
The entire DV series of Dell laptops is flawed wirelessly apparently. The blue "on" stays on and the adapter disappeared along with all wireless connectivity. No restore point for this Vista machine, Ugh. Re-installing the Wireless assistant and driver are fail. Just the always on, happy blue light special light attached to "no sale". I need to uninstall the driver settings, somehow. HP is near class action status on their wireless for this broadcomm series, I'm near a complete reinstall over a simple driver. HELP!
