    You shouldnt need a wireless utility to connect to any wireless router UPC or not.

    Windows has its own wireless utlity and usually whatever wireless card or dongle you are using will also have its own - you can use either to connect to a wireless network.

    What model is it and where have you looked?

    Will the vista driver not work with xp?

    I've reinstalled vista because I couldn't find the xp drivers. I've now reinstalled vista and I'm trying to get my cisco usb wireless adapter working, the drivers on the website only go up to xp, it was already working fine when i had vista the first time but i dont know if the upc guys used their own software that they probably had.The model is dpw939, should I ring ups and ask them to send out the drivers if they have them?

    UPC (or any other isp) have nothing got to do with your wireless drivers.

    You have to use the manufacturers drivers for wireless cards or usbs.

    Ok,
    I meant that they would probably have the vista drivers for it since they installed it on a vista comp, I can't find them on the net so I'll probably have to see if one of the engineers has them.
