licensedlunacy Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 I have the DWL-G630, and it seems to work fine, but I can only seem to get it to detect new networks during boot. Also, I dont think I can take it out and put it back in without rebooting. Any ideas? How do you get yours to work perfectly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
