------------------------------
I had the same problem with my satellite A200's wifi card (Atheros
AR5007EG). I think the problem comes from windows update installing a wrong
version of the driver. So I just tried to restore the previous driver
(7.3.1.42) and things worked fine again !!
Hope this will help
