Default Re: WAN Miniport (IP)?

Fixed my problem.

1. Edited registry to allow uninstall of "Wan Miniport (IP)" device (this was the most difficult part...i'll post a link to where I found the info for this step when I find it again)
2. Took the file called "c:\windows\inf\netrasa.inf" from another working XP installation and copied it to a flash drive
3. Reinstalled Wan Miniport through add new hardware > add a new hardware device > network adapters > microsoft > wan miniport (IP) .. select "have disk" and find the file called "netrasa.inf" saved on the flash drive
4. Reinstall wifi drivers if not already installed
5. reboot and test connection.. if it's still not working then...
6. go to run > services.msc and make sure any services that reference networking in any way is not disabled and set to automatic. this was my problem.
7. reboot and test for connectivity.

hope this helps someone else with this problem..
