ENHANCEMENTS/FIXES:
FIXES:
- Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 and Intel PRO/Wireless 2915 Network Connection
driver Version 9.0.1.9 for Windows XP:
- Fixes an intermittent issue where a WLAN connection may be dropped
while the Intel PRO/Wireless 2915 Network Connection is in
"Continuous Aware" mode (CAM) and is channel scanning.
- Fixes a potential issue where the may system stop responding if the
WLAN is enabled while the system is entering Suspend or Hibernate
mode. When this issue occurs, the user has to enable the WLAN after
the system disables it while preparing to enter Suspend or Hibernate
mode. This issue affects Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 and Intel
PRO/Wireless 2915 network connections.

- No changes were made to the Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter
driver (Version 1.2.3.14) for Windows XP. It is the same version that was
provided in the superseded SoftPaq.
PREREQUISITES:
- For systems with the Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 Network Connection and
Intel PROSet Software:
If Intel PROSet Software is installed and the installed version is
earlier than version 9.0, it is recommended that the Intel PROSet
software be uninstalled before upgrading the driver. If the Intel PROSet
software is required, install Intel PROSet 9.0.1 software (available in
SoftPaq Number SP29334) after the driver is upgraded.

- For systems with the Intel PRO/Wireless 2100:
If Microsoft Wi-Fi protected access (WPA) support for Windows XP Zero
