Can anyone help please??

I'm using a Linksys wusb11 (ver 2.6) wireless adapter for my network.

It works just fine except.............

Most times when I boot up the computer the driver is disabled (yellow
exclamation mark in device manager).

The only way I can fix it is to go into device manager, remove the driver,
unplug the adapter, replug it in, wait for it to reinstall the driver, find
the network, retype the wep code and connect!!

Rather long-winded and very frustrating.

I'm running XP home. There's no problem with the adapter in other computers
and my XP pro laptop uses it happily as does my wife's W2000.

Any suggestions? I have tried completely removing and reinstalling also.

Thanks

Nottnick
