Which of course is why a search for "ministumbler config utility" returns exactly two results in forever: this thread, and the "Cards that reportedly DO NOT work with...ministumbler".

I tried to reference the first thread, but got stuck in a recursive loop and had to reset myself.

The second thread addresses a set of cards which does not include the Netgear MA701, so it does not apply.

Searches on variations of "ministumbler stops working", "ministumbler configuration", "netgear ministumbler config", and the familiar "ministumbler configuration utility" also returned no useful results.

I also didn't see it covered in the FAQ's, there is no help to consult, and the other guides weren't helping. The owners manual for my wireless materials, and the online support, do not address how to use a Netstumbler-like utility in conjunction with the OEM config utility.

So unless the discussions about this topic which have been going on "forever" are hidden somewhere that "search" can't find, they would appear to be nonexistant. Unless, perhaps there is some other parsing of search terms which works for you. Since it is non-obvious to a new user (at least this one), perhaps a little less snotty sarcasm is in order...particularly in the new user forum?

I don't really see where your post was helpful or on-topic at all.

You /might/ consider watching a new user's problem solving strategy and how it works out, and think about that strategy when deciding what to add or change in the FAQ, guides, and Readme files.

Or, you could just continue being rude.
