After several home users calling and complain about the wireless network and SP2. I have multiple users that have installed Windows XP SP2, after the install there networking has become difficult to work with. Either no internet connection and or not able to use a shared device. This is happening on Windows XP home and or Xp Pro editions.

Now this is happening with Microsoft Wireless Networking equipment as well as Linksys. So I am sure it's not the equipment.
