    I have vista lite installed and everything is working except for wireless.
    I think that the lite version had wireless/wireless services removed. Is there anything to do to get them back?
    I have installed the driver and had a good mess around, cant get it to work.

    Thanks for any replys.

    It is possible to remove WLAN-support completely from the vista install, and if that is the case then you probably have no chance of getting it back afterwards.

    I have WIFI on my vista Install (1,5GB RAM/8GB SSD) and it has even stronger signals than XP in my wireless network. Just use the proper drivers and you'll be fine!

    I've installed this driver "atheros_ar5xxx_76083_vista".
