Hi,

I got a new WG311T wireless adatper card today, to go with the WGT624
wireless router.
I have had all sorts of problems getting it to install and connect properly,
but finally I seem to have a connection that is working.

I have found the following problems:


1. The Wireless assistant app does not seem to start correctly. I see it
running in task manager (wlancfg.exe), but no ICON in the sys tray nor the
user interface. I managed to see the UI once, and that was just after the
installation, and then I was getting exceptions and errors. Now I have
rebooted all I see is the little wireless network connection icon in the
systray, but cannot activate the Netgear assistant.

2. I can only seem to connect at 54Mbs. I have WPA-PSK enabled on the router
and card. The manual says not a lot about why this happens. My signal
strength is showing " very good" and shows between 3-5 bars on the
properties tab.

3. I looked on the netgear site for updated drivers. The version installed
from the CD appears to be 4.0.0.167, dated 10/02/2005. The latest non beta
version on the website seems to be 3.3, with the beta version reading 4.3.
The 4.3 version does not seem to work properly. I did the installation of
that but could not get the card connected to the router using it.

Can anyone shed some light on these issues?

Thanks,

Steve
