You shouldn't even need to load any drivers - Vista will do the biz itself if attached via wire to the internet.

Thank you for that Dave R, I was a bit concerned about Vista compatibility. I think that should sort my next door neighbour out. :)

I use the WLI2-PCI-G54S £17 at E-Buyer # quickfind code: 82316

The problem with pci cards is the aerial is fixed in one place, and it necessasrily the best place!
If you have problems, get an external aerial like this quickfind code: 131878

Can anybody recommend a PCI Wireless card for a Vista Home tower?
£20/£30 price range.
The network is SKY, with a Netgear wireless ADSL modem router, not sure of model. Modem is in the downstairs/ front of the house, tower will be upstairs/back.
