This is a repost from another Tech Repub member that I posted after he did. No one answered our question…
We have the Lenovo R61e (I have 6). The 1st thing I did when I bought them is formatt the HD and reinstall Windows XP SP2 and all of the drivers.
At this point, connecting to both wireless and hardline internet access points works.
Then, I install the Cisco VPN and despite being connected via the same CAT5 as before, my network cards show that there is a cable disconnected. The wireless network manager (Windows not Lenovo’s manager) shows no available wireless networks.
I have to uninstall the VPN before I can connect to any networks.
Does anyone have any suggestions? VPN is a vital part of these PC’s being useful so it must be installed. I have the most updated network card drivers and the latest Cisco VPN (5.0 I believe).
HELP!!!!
