Vista: after hibernate it can't find my wireless network

[blin]

Q: I'm chiming in to going the club on this one. I've got a Dell Latitude D620
with an Intel 3945abg adapter running Vista Ultimate RTM. The inability to
connect after waking up from sleep/hibernating is driving me nuts.

Q: I'm having a similar issue on my new Gateway laptop. After coming
back from hibernation, my wireless card will not find any networks
until I reboot.

THANK YOU so very much! I have been trying for 5 days to get connected. It
was the speed that was the problem. Again thanks.

I fixed my system by disabling the on board nic card and installing a regular card, some onboard nics just want work with vista even if you have the drivers.
