Had a friends PC running XP that was being used with a cheapo generic Wireless adaptor that would usually tell you that it had no network connection.
Yet it was perfectly possible to surf the internet on this machine with no problem, and the status leds on the Adaptor showed a connection it was just windows that was inisiting it wasn't connected.
