Hi,

DriverLoader 2.00 introduced improved support for all the supported 
chipsets and for most systems with strange problems like you described 
were fixed in this release.

It is possible that the Linux kernel do not perfectly handle your 
hardware and this is why you experiences problems with DriverLoader. 
Please try to use the wireless card in another machine to see if there 
is a difference.

Regards,
