I was having the same problem, but it's a new OS so you have to play with it for a while to see here the new things and new ways of doing the same old tasks. If your hardware is installed and suported, just go the add Features on Server Manager and then add the Wireless Networking, then just go tomanage network connections and you are done.

I tried the following and still i am unsuccessfull. I installed the latest drivers for the interwireless proset. Still I cannot see available wireless network. Any help would be appreciated. Ravi

Maybe your drivers or your device is not on HCL list and don't work with Longhorn...

Go to your WiFi card maker's website and download the latest Vista driver. If that fails, then your card isn't supported at all in Longhorn Server.Kinda reminds me of how my internal PCI wireless card (D-Link DWL G650, IIRC) was recognized in Longhorn, but wouldn't connect to my LAN... until I remembered that I had one of those WiFi gaming adapters that plugs into an Ethernet port =P

Hi, I am facing the same issue but that is only happening with 64 bit OS. Previously when I installed Vista on same notebook, it picked up the wirless network card and also the networks very easily but in 64 Bit longhorn it is not the case. I don't have drivers from manufacturer for 64 Bit but that was also the same case when I tried it on 32 bit Vista. I hope in next build Microsoft will provide the basic drivers as they did for Vista.

Yeah, I found another post on forum which suggested this same thing. I have already tried this thing and it worked. So you just have add the wireless networking featrure and it will be just simple as in vista to setup the wireless connection. Thanks for the tip darenhuang.
