    The wireless radio works fine, I can connect to wireless networks through Vista's wireless manager. However, Thinkvantage's Access Connection does not detect that the 802.11 wireless is on, when it definately is. When I try to use the Fn + F5 to turn the wireless radio on, it does nothing. I would like to solve this problem so I can use Access Connections manager to setup various network configurations.

    I have updated all drivers, access connection to the newest version, etc. and nothing seems to work. Any ideas? Also, I can't use thinkvantage's power manager to control my power profiles.

    Thanks
