I have this wireless card, works fine for months, now having major issues with it connecting to my network. It won't obtain an IP address, I can set a static one but that doesn't work properly either, it says it is connected but it is brutally slow. I tested the card in another computer and I know it works fine, also did a fresh install (tried XP x86 and x64 versions), still the same problem. I tried resetting my router but to no avail, my Macbook works fine though in OSX and XP x86. Any ideas?
 
Have you tried completely deleting (Driver Cleaner Pro) & re-installing the driver?
 
I haven't, but this is on a fresh install of XP, so I'm not sure if that would make a difference. But I will try it.
 
Reinstalled drivers, upgraded firmware on router, reset router to factory defaults, still wouldn't work...

So I was looking on a random page and someone said he had major packet loss with the same card, and what fixed the majority of it was actually rotating the antenna.

So I rotated the antenna 90 degrees from straight up/down to straight sideways and now it works perfectly fine. Very very weird...
