mrloupcity: I don't know much, and a whole lot less than the others on here, but I'll tell you this. My netgear wireless router was a nightmare in the end.

I had someone put that one in, cause I had so much headache with others before. All was great for 3 months, then I started having it suddenly drop and lose signal or lose internet. I finally decided it was outside interference, maybe a ham radio or other transmission drowning it out.

Anyway, we finally got so fed up, that we had it all pulled out. I had the same problem you did with trying to put the other card back in. Her pc is still looking for wireless even tho its not there, I bet.

I don't know what all Robert did. (He doesn't play here) but I can always give you his email addy if you like and you could contact him.

Hopefully, the others can give you some help.
