Windows XP wireless drivers - where to find?

[ibd]

Hi,

I've been having problems with my Macbook Pro (early 2008) with wireless under Windows XP (via bootcamp) - frequent disconnects and the like.
Some people recommended me to search for new drivers, but I wasn't able to find working ones. According to windows, I have a "broadcom network adapter", and os x tells me it is a "broadcom bcm43xx", in fact. I've read that other people had similar issues with wireless, and that a driver update sometimes helped - if they were able to find them.

Do you know of any drivers that you could recommend over the standard bootcamp drivers for wireless?
It would be great if you could provide a version number or a direct link, as it seems to be hard to find things with google.

Cheers,
ibd

There are drivers on the Leopard DVD. I and others have had problems similar to your own. The crappy wireless drivers were causing a lot of problems in other areas particularly audio playback. More info here

As far as I know it's a problem with the Windows wireless drivers and the ones on the Leopard DVD are the most recent ( still ). No solid solution as far as I know.

Yes, I've a actually come across these threads when searching for a solution. Too bad there still isn't one.
