Case 3: You have a USB-based wireless connection enabled on a computer that is running  Windows XP or Windows Vista. Even when there are five or more wireless network connections available, the Wireless Network Connection dialog box shows that there are a maximum of four wireless network connections available.

Resolution: download and install this hotfix: You see only four available wireless network connections when you use a USB-based wireless network adapter in Windows XP or in Windows Vista
