No connection after BIOS upgrade.

I recently upgraded the BIOS on an ASUS Eee PC and now the wireless connect
has failed. No settings have been changed so I am lost as to what to do.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

Jake.

Was the upgrade an authorized ASUS firmware?

Are you sure the upgraded firmware didn't disable the wireless in BIOS?

Have you contacted ASUS support to ask them about it?

Hi
Check the support site for new Drivers.
With New BIOS sometimes they can be new drivers.

Also, some BIOS updates might complete "screw up" the settings. You
might have to complete re-do the BIOS settings after "resetting" them
to "factory" defaults.
