wireless not work after install SP1

Hi,
My thinkpad laptop runs Windows Vista. the wireless worked ok before I
install Vista SP1.
After installing SP1, I only can actually view my wireless connections, I
see everything, but upon connecting I get the "Connection is taking longer
than usual" crap. I reinstalled the drivers, but no go.

When Vista does the diagnostics, it says "The network adapter 'wireless
network connection' is not correctly configured to use the IP protocol'".
Then, there are two options below. 1 is about hardware and driver issues,
the other is about the internet protocol bindings and IPv4 and Ipv6 being
installed (which they are).

Anyone have an idea how I can fix this?
Does anyone experience the same thing after installing SP1
Thanks

Sometimes, after an SP1 update, drivers need to be removed and scanned for
again in Device manager.
A device driver is not installed, or a hardware device does not function
correctly after you install Windows Vista Service Pack 1:

Have you tried using ThinkVantage System Update since you installed SP1?

Hi,

I am also having the same problem. My broadcom wireless hardware itself is
not detected. Unfortunately, I had to uninstall the SP1 updates and it starts
working. For the time being I am avoiding SP1.

I am not sure of the issue, please suggest, so that I can get Sp1.

Thanks,

Rahul
