Toshiba mini-PCI wireless card

Archived from groups: alt.internet.wireless,comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

I recently bought a Toshiba mini-PCI wireless card (PA3171U-1MPC) for my
Toshiba 4600 laptop.

Windows XP (Service Pack 2) recognised it and its working nicely on my
network but only with WEP64 encryption.

So far I haven't managed to get it working with WPA, my preferred method of
encryption.

I note in Device Manager that the installed drivers are circa 2001.

I realise this is now an old card but surely there must be later drivers
and/or firmware for it.

But so far all searching of Toshiba, Lucent and Texas Instruments sites has
drawn a blank.

The Toshiba site has a Windows 2000/XP driver but I dont want to install
since it looks older than the standard XP one.


Does anybody know of the existance of later drivers and/or firmware for
this card?


thanks in advance.
