Well, the docs clearly stated that you could use ZCS or the Dlink utility under XP. Plus I can't see it making any difference as much of the N stuff should be handled at the driver level anyways. And thirdly, it does associate with the AP, it just seems to hang up on getting an ip address, that fact that it causes all the other machines to have a problem, is well.. a problem ;-) > 98se machines back in the good old days.

With some manufacturers cards, I'd agree with you as their wifi utility sucks. I used to use the manufacturer utility for most clients, but at least with ZCS, you can get a reasonably consistent experience across products. -- Harondel J.
