    TZ21WN / B (Version Europe) Windows Vista

    After replacing the intel wifi card on the intel 5100 abg
    Smart Network application does not include wifi card

    Figure 1


    The long sought a solution with a bad result

    I decided to get some applications from the Sony Vaio Usa (my model is sony vaio Europe)
    I used to model Smartwii Tz29 (usa)

    Figure 2



    And now I'm not comfortable situation.

    To turn on I have to use wlan smartwii

    I need to turn on WWAN network could use smart (smartwii does not work with my gsm modem says that it is an error to start

    Any ideas how to do it under one application?

    Put in the section about Sony because maybe someone invents something users

    Try this driver
    ftp://ftp.vaio-link.com/PUB/VAIO/ORIGINAL/VAIO_SMART_NETWORK 2.3_092Q_WWAN_2.3.0.18250.ZIP

    I used that with my Sony TX in Vista with a 5300 card.

    If that doesn't work for you these drivers, the last one is a 32bit TT Vista driver which takes a 5100 and uses an Option card.

    If you can't control your wifi with smart network then you'll just need to control it with Vista's built in tools instead.
