Cool Using both wireless card and dongle

Hello,

I was just wondering if someone may offer me some help. I have a laptop, which atm is connected to the tinternet via cable, but when im at uni it is wireless. I also have a girlfriend, who when im not with her wants to play nintendo DS wirelessly (similarly i want to get our wii online). Therefore i bought a wireless dongle. Now here lies the problem.

I can get the wifi dongle working perfectly with its own ZDWlan program, but i cannot (or dont know how) get my normal built in wireless going again (for uni).

When i change the Wireless Zero Config on, normal wireless works fine, but the dongle dies.

As you probably already know, the dongle is piggybacking my own internet connection.

Any info or ideas you guys could offer me would be great.

Thanks very much,
Happy Holidays

Skellz

Strange problem.

I'm using two dongles, they work fine. I can switch at any time.

I'd suggest that you use a wireless program that supports both the built-in card and the dongle.

Let say
Boingo Wireless
OR netProfiles
OR WiFi Hopper
OR any program that allows selecting the wlan card to use.

you can get download URLs from my signiture.

Regards,
