Network controller driver on T400s gone

#1 Post by tbar2112 » Sun Aug 23, 2009 9:19 am

Hi,

I used System Update and downloaded & installed a recommended update to my wireless network adapter. That caused me to lose the network controller, it is no longer reconized by my system. Restoring to the point before the update did not help, and I am no able to fin this driver on the Lenovo support pages or through the Vista search options. The device missing the driver is listed in the device manager under Other Devices as "Network Controller".

Any ideas how I can find the driver without rolling back to the preload? Thanks!
Cheers, T-Bar

So I managed to solve this one with the help of a thread in the Lenovo help forusm - solution was to download the Wifilink 5100 driver from Intel's support page (did not manage to find the correct drivers on Lenovo's site).
Cheers, T-Bar
