No Wireless Adapter found after Recovery

[phillyd2]

I just did a complete Recovery from CD (P/N 24R3274) on my X31 - 2884JGU and all seemed to be ok except that the installed LEE 802.11A/B WIRELESS MINI-PCI CARD is now not being recognized. Worked without issue right before the recovery.

Fn F5 only shows Bluetooth. Device Manager sees a unknown Ethernet Controller under Other Devices (big yellow ?). The installed Intel Pro/1000 MT Mobile Connection as well as the 1394 Net Adapter show up ok under Network Adaptors in the Device Manager.

In Control Panel / Network Connections all that is shown is the Intel Pro/1000 MT Mobile Connection and the 1394 Net Adapter but NO wireless adaptor.

Using a different computer I downloaded a few different Wireless drivers but LEE 802.11A/B WIRELESS MINI-PCI CARD was NOT on the list of available drivers. None of the drivers worked. I also downloaded the latest Access Connection but still nothing.

Any thoughts?

Assuming that your X31 hasn't had a different card put in it, the correct driver should be this one:

It maybe that you have already tried it

I searched on the FRU number for your card and after a while came up with the above driver for "802.11bg and 802.11abg wireless LAN Mini PCI adapter"
although your card should be as you say only "ab"

Well look at you with all your fancy information

Thank you very much. Downloaded, installed and it works! I guess I installed everyone but this one.

Danke !!!!

You are more than welcome, to be honest, I wasn't 100% sure.
