Wireless networking stopped working
Wireless Networking Stopped Working following installation of Service Pack 2. A Wireless NEC laptop with the latest wireless network drivers would not detect the prescence of a wireless AP, or a wireless network point.
These devices were placed within 1m proximity. The Wireless Network Connection dialog box shows unusual behaviour, where the box in the bottom right corner says "Connect" when its already connected or says "Disconnect" when it's already disconnected. It has taken a software engineer like myself with 12 years' experience 6 hours to configure a wireless network, only to have one out of two laptops operating. The laptop that is not operating is the one being affected by SP2's wireless networking flaws.
