Wireless connection with dell inspiron & Eircom broadband

kcajrum

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could help on this one, i just purchased a dell inspiron 6400 with a intel pro WLAN 3945 wireless card installed, i tried to coonect this but was having no luck, on calling eircom broadband support they advised i will need software from Intel.. they managed to get me connected on the call but said they could not guartee how long this would last, it lasted until i re-booted the pc..what software do i need from Intel and how do i get it?

heres the link for the driver on the dell site
its an updated driver and its a fairly hefty download (90 megs)

What did eircom do on the call to get you connected?

There's no real need to answer this if the driver works.
