WinXP has been discussed as having possible conflicts between the Wireless
Zero Configuration networking and certain drivers. Most likely the two are
fighting over control of the WG311.

Here's a link to the easy steps to turning off WZC. Don't forget to reboot.

By the way, is the Netgear utility (WLANCFGx) running at startup? It should
be in your system tray. That should be the program that scans for available
access points. If not, try running it manually from Start and see if it
finds anything.
