Have a Netgear MA401 11mbps wireless network card. Device
manager says everything is OK with the hardware, but
device status shows red (NO CONNECTION) and I dont know
how to get it to work with XP. It works fine with my Win98
laptop but XP doesn't want it. Any suggestions?

Also, do I need to do the "PC Card removal" ala Win98 in
Windows XP?

No connection means that the card is not associated with Access point.
Do you use XP wireless support (WZC) with your card? Does it show any
available access points?

Sure! Do it always!
