Hi!

I'm trying to replace a DWA-140 USB wireless adapter with a DWL-G520 PCI wireless adapter but I cannot succeed.

I use Vista 32bit business.

I first removed the USB adapter.
Then I uninstalled the drivers and software for the DWA-140.
I installed the DWL-G520 PCI card and installed the drivers and software for the card.

The DWL-G520 is visible in the Network connections view.
It also is listed in the device manager with no problems.

But, when I try to Connect to a Network I cannot see the SSID of the router.

When I try to connect to the network manually, I get a message that say: "A network called XXX already exists."

It is like the network XXX doesn't work with the DWL, only with the DWA.

I want to switch to the PCI card since I have experienced too many dropouts when using any brand of USB adapter.

I'm stuck, help me! :sigh:
