| Wireless divice through USB switch I connected a USB switch PW-141A to a vista platform. It works fine for printers, etc however it will not work with a wireless divice for connecting to the internet. The same divice works fine on the same wireless divice with an XP plateform. Any ideas? Thanks Frank |

| It does seem very odd that the switch allows you to see networked printers but not 'the internet'. If you right click on the network icon and go to 'Network and sharing center' it should show you how Vista believe it is connected. Usually it's: Computer => Network => Internet But I'm guessing yours shows: Computer => Network X Internet Is that correct? crabby |
