MS hotpatch broke 2Wire connection
Posted by Jhumbo on August 26th, 2003


My brother has had a wireless network set up between his Sony Vaio
laptop and his DSL connection using 2Wire equipment. All was well
until he installed the latest MS Hotpatch to take care of the security
issue with that latest virus. Now he can no longer connect via the
wireless card. Using the wired Ethernet card works just fine and his
desktop PC works just fine as well. He spent quite a bit of time on
the phone with Ameritech DSL, 2Wire and Sony and every says its not
their problem. The issue seems to be that the MS Patch conflicts with
the 2Wire card. Has anyone else had similar problems or know how to
fix this? If so, please post a reply. Thanks much
