I have had a problem with my wireless connection after installing SP2 today.
After installing SP2 I have been able to connect to 802.11b wireless network
but I am unable to receive IP address from DHCP. There were no problems prior
to installing SP2. My wireless network is not encrypted nor secured any other
way. My ethernet adapter is connected to the same switch as my WiFi access
point. There are no problems with the ethernet connection, only with WiFi
connection.
I have uninstalled the network driver, fetched the newest one from the
manufacturers home page and installed it. The problem remains.
I have reinstalled TCP/IP protocol to network adapters as described in
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 811259 How to determine and recover from
Winsock2 corruption. No help.
I am using Intel Centrino chipset with Intel Pro/wireless 2200BG chip for
WiFi connections. Intel claims my Wifi chipset is SP2 compatible.
Does anybody have a solution?
