So I bought a Linksys WMP54G v4.1 adapter hoping to finnaly get connection on vista (had an old wireless card that was not compatible). I installed the 64 bit drivers from the disk and the device is working properly according to device manager.
I get an extremely slow connection on vista, 9 out of the 10 times it does not even work. I cant ping simple sites like www.google.com and I can't trace them either. IF I am able to trace/ping them I lose alot of packets.
It's only with internet though, normal network seems to be fine.
The connection is fast on XP Home though. The same wireless adapter on XP Home gives zero problems. Same hardware as the vista (I have dual boot). XP Has no lost packets whatsoever with ping/trace.
I really do not know what is causing this, I also cannot find a solution off google.
