Wireless driver issue

Hi there,

I have a Medion Laptop with an Atheros ar500ug adapter
Everytime I restart my Computer I get a message saying that this device can perform faster if plugged into a high speed port although it is a built in adapter and then I am unable to connect.

When I check the device manager I see there is a # symbol beside the adapter.

I have to remove the adapter and reboot in order to get a connection agian.

If you could let me know what the issue might be it would be great.

Laptop Vista service pack 2

Cheers.

The # symbol just comes after the driver name, there are no conflicts or anything like that shown in the Device manager.
Its quite a strange issue just happens when the Computer goes to sleep.

Do u know why it would say the adapter would perform faster if connected to a high speed port.

Cheers,
John.
