| 611204 | 2007-11-13 14:37:00 | I have a wireless Issue . . . I have a t43p IBM Thinkpad with an Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG wireless card, which is integrated with the motherboard . The wireless works fine on the docking station, also when it is powered up with the power adapter . But as soon as i boot it up without the power adapter or docking station the wireless will not work and when i go into the device manager i get a yellow exlamation mark next to the wireless adapter . After i reboot the system after this . . i need to uninstall the adapter, then re install it and it works fine after that . . . until i take it off the power adapter . Any suggestions? |

| 611207 | 2007-11-13 19:19:00 | I am thinking if may be a driver issue, although it has all the up to date drivers... | davenziria (12589) | ||
| 611208 | 2007-11-13 19:32:00 | I'd be looking for a power setting. Wireless is off to save power when on bty? | linw (53) | ||

| 611211 | 2007-11-14 01:32:00 | Check your device manager profiles. You can customise which hardware devices are available for different users, not sure but the same may be true for different powering profiles. | iwalmsley (12803) | ||
