You may want to use the link.
But for me and my wireless XP laptop using a Linksys network card, I
disabled the Wireless Zero Configuration service on the XP O/S.
Then I downloaded the card's driver from its website.
Then I installed the driver and configured it using Device Manager.
On the NIC's Property Screen, I enabled *show network connection* which
places the icon in the job tray and you can put the mouse pointer on the
icon and it will show the signal strength.
I don't use the card's utility to do anything and uninstalled it.
If that Bridge icon is there with the Icon for the wireless card in the LAN
screen, then you should delete it.
When I did all of the above, the wireless connection became solid as a rock
and all the problems I was having before and have not seen since went away.
