OK - Now to laptops - how do you TURN ON THE WIRELESS CARD via the Fn key?

runnerbl - did you get all the other drivers installed except the wireless topdog card? No I never got the topdog wireless card to work. Also check the other forum link above on this subject.

Tony - thanks for our kind words, but it isn't that much pain. I have been using a USB adapter and it has been working fine for me to surf, BUT I wold like to see if someone can get this Topdog card to work. I have followed his instructions to the tee but it says it's there, the manager says...

wiccedwiccan - I also have a mt6456 but it just doesn't seem to find any networks. If I attach myUSB wireless adapter, then the adapter has no problem finding any but the wireless won't . I wonder if I need to get rid of the usb adapter software and see if it will work. wiccedwiccan - do you...

Burt wrote I have an MT6821, which has a Marvel Yukon 88E8038 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller... Isn't that for the CAT 5 WIRED PORT - not the wireless set up that everyone is looking for - or have I lost it?

Burt - try mailing them to me at awacky99-at-hotmail.com and I'll see if it workes. Now you have the mt6458 or MT6456 and you are saying it is the topdog card and it works for you?

Well it just wouldn't find any networks. I then took out the Netgear using the remove software and that also got rid of the wireless connection. I then tried to do the zero configuration and it was already set up as auto. So now I'm back to the start where xp has found new hardware. Why when I...

Tony - Yep I know you don't have it anymore and you got the replacement card - but even with that you still have info that has helped and clarified things for me. I did put in that Netgear driver (sys) and it might work. I don't have any wireless connections around me right now so I won't know...

Tony - isn't this - choose "PC Connectivity" and "Yukon" and Windows XP" and use driver 10.22.7.3 just for the LAN wired port?

Tony - you're the best. Now what about lonebirch - 'NETMW145.sys' any need for this?

Has anyone tried lonebirch idea or his step by step plans? Tony - how do you do this - 1. The 'Wireless Zero Configuration' Service in the Windows 'Computer Management Console' must be set to 'Automatic' startup type. thanks

burtsbees - so you checked your laptop at work and found it has the correct card we are needing help with - then you mentioned a ftp site - what happened there? So bottom line - is your Marvell Yukon 88E8038 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller working? If so How?

mautik - go to http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1376645 and see if any of those posts will help.

StomperX - I've been following your questions on the web and have responded to them. 1st did you ever get the sound working on your friends MT6456? As of these days the wireless card in there will only work with Vista - and you know your choices by now.

ekernelfire - I tried the 802 wireless one listed on that page but it didn't work for me.
