SP2 Experience

[jsteele]

Last night I installed SP2 and it went very well. The only problem I encountered was with a wireless connection.

I use Access Connections to manage my network connections and have been very pleased with the way ti works. Several days ago I installed the latest 3.30 verison of Access Connections along with the driver updates and that went fine.

After I installed SP2 last night however I found that I could not actually transfer data over my 802.11A connection. Access Connections said that it had set up the connection to my wireless router but nothing was actually happening and I was not able to connect to the router. I changed connections to a 802.11B connection and it too said it was setup but nothing was happening.

I ran "repair" on the supposedly active connection and the connection dropped, was reestablished and started working fine. I then switched to the 802.11A connection and it too was working fine.

Other than this I have had zero problems thus far with SP2. In fact it appears to have 'fixed' a problem I was having with Peachtree Accounting ver 7.0 since upgrading to XP (in date fields overtyping a default date resulted in a dark blue field with characters jumbled together --- this is gone in SP2)
