    Hey guys,

    I swapped my Atheros AR5B225 wifi card with a new Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235. I installed the intel drivers and the device is listed correctly in the device manager. But the Intel PROSet/Wireless Wifi keeps telling me, that I need to activate the hardware. The wifi-card is activated in the device manager. I don't have a wifi switch or a short key combination on my SVE1511C5E. I also tried the Vaio Smart Network but nothing is changing, when i turn on or off the wireless functions with that software.

    Any ideas to solve the problem?
