Re: Wireless networking from non-privileged account

Hi

You probably installed the Wireless card software utility and the card is
managed by it.

So either you install/make available the Utility to all user, or (as Pavel
posted above) get rid of the utility and use Windows Zero Configuration
(WZC). Working with WZC would need Card drivers that are fully compatible
with Windows, which some times it is not the case with some off brand cards.
