I've go Portege M800 from here in Australia, with Vista 32. I'm really getting sick of the Windows wireless software.

On my old (not Toshiba laptop) I used to use the Intel PROSET Wireless Utility. Is it possible to use this with my M800 laptop?
I tried download and installing something from the toshiba au site, called: SP300-IntelProset-120004-Vis32 and ICS_v32 file from Intel's download section.

However (for me) this only installs the following:
WiFi advanced statistics
WiFi manual diagnostics
Intel My WiFi Technology
WiFi Administrator Tool

No sign of the actual PROSET Wireless connection Utility from Intel.

I'm getting everything except what I want!

Please help me find and install this elusive (for me) tool.

Thanks

No- I've used PROSet wireless connection utility on other laptops before, but I can not get it to install on this laptop,

Can you link it to me?
