On my WinXP FC8 dual boot laptop, I had my wifi working
after following installing the code as indicated on this
newsgroup. Now it no longer works with FC8, while it
continues to work with WinXP on the same box.
Suggestions would be most appreciated. For these tests,
I have encryption off. Here is some data:
