They'd all been up for ~1 year prior to death, and it seemed to be the power cycling that killed them. They all behaved like yours, rebooting continuously and refusing to talk to any network. In at least one case the pattern of LED flashes at power on indicated a RAM failure, IIRC - I think these are documented in the manual, or on Intel's website if not. Anyway, they were all very dead and very out of warranty :-( I tried one of the cards in a laptop at the time and couldn't get it to work either - this was a while ago though, so I assumed it was just not supported. Perhaps I should take another look at it. > Any ideas?? Sadly I think your AP is dead, time to upgrade to .11g maybe?
