Hi,
I have a bit of a strange problem. A year or so ago I bought a Belkin G Wifi Card for my PC. Everything was fine until I moved to another country in Europe and changed my internet connection and router.

The card works ok, but I cannot see hardly any wireless networks in range (despite the fact my router is about 2 feet away from the PC). Laptop picks up my network and about 10 others, wheras my desktop card only sees 2. This happened in XP, and is the same now I have upgraded the machine to Vista, so definitely not software/driver related.

I suspect it is something to do with the channel/frequency that networks broadcast on in this country that differs from the setup I had in the uk?
