T60 update led to no wireless??

I did an update last night (Feb 23) on my T60 and the wireless will no longer connect. Has anyone had similar problems? With my other computer I went to the Thinkpad support site and downloaded a new wireless driver and intalled it, but I still can't get connected.
Any ideas?

zrick,
The last couple releases of Access Connections have given me poblems on my T60 with the ABGN card. Can connect and ping but not browse with IE consistently. If you are using AC, you might try uninstalling it and see what happens. Windows WZC works fine. (I am using XP Pro.)
I have tried several times to fix this without finding a 100% solution, so if anyone else has a thought, it would be appreciated.

I'll try unistalling Access Connections tonight and report back to see if that helped. Thanks, I was focusing more on the wireless driver rather than Access Connections.

FYI,
I removed the ThinkPad's Access Connections and after re-entering the WEP key, all is fine now using the standard Windows XP wireless software.

You just need to delete the existing wireless location profile in AC and recreate a new wireless location profile.

Great. It's the only thing that worked for me, but I will try i.thinkpad's suggestion sometime when I am bored.
