    Hello my friends .
    Hope someone can help me before i call dell.
    In Broadcom control suite in the network status the link status of the intel pro is down ( in red )
    The intel wireless card is finding all the wireless networks and of course my wireless network at home but there is no link and so i can not connect .
    Under system and devices everything is ok and working properly.
    I unistalled the wireless card , reistalled and upgraded and downgraded but nothing . I tried countless times to connect and only 3-4 times the link became green and everything was ok.
    As you se the link status is unstable . It comes and go away and turnes back .
    What is going on . Is it a hardware problem or a sofware conflict ?
    If this can help ( under events i get the errore : STacSV , EVENT 65535 ,
    Connection to BassMgrHDA COM interface failed )
    Why is the link of the wireless card unstable ?

    Best regards

    Many people are having problems with the 3945ABG on Vista since the latest Driver updates starting about 2 months ago...and going back to any of the older working ones won't help, you need to go back to the Microsoft one. Dell won't help you, and they have no KB article about it or anything...we are on our own...

    My friends i only want to inform you that the problem is resolved.
    I reseted my Linksys Router and everything is perfect .
    I made too many changes on the router and it went in tilt.
    Now i have the best laptop in the world and you know why ???
    Because IT IS A DELL .
    Best regards
