Hi There

That's an Ethernet adaptor. Did the software you installed not provide any WLAN program?

I would still question the Unknown device in Device Manager.

Hi There

The first network driver is the link I sent you.

Have you rebooted the machine?

Well m8 I'm stumped. The HP site says download the driver and assistant, reboot and viola.

Are you 100% that the wifi adaptor is turned on?

Oh and one more thing: Before this i did try and install Windows XP on this Laptop i then installed the Broadcom drivers in safemode and it worked, after 2 restarts the wireless icon dissapeared. So this does show that it IS working theres just something wrong. Where as in Vista it doesn't work AT all
