Okay so I have installed iAtkos v7 on my dell inspiron E1505(lol) and it runs beautifully,

The only problem that surfaced was the network card problem,
I have a dell wireless 1390 WLAN mini card
under device manager it says the manufacturer is broadcom
my ethernet driver was listen in the dvd so i chose it,
I also checked the broadcom one in the list for wireless.
When I install it and go thru the welcome thing, it reads it and im able to connect to the internet, but once I restart the computer or something the card is not able to read any wi-fi, I have to like keep trying or restart the computer again for it to read any network.
This problem is really annoying so any help with it can be extremely appreciated

Are you saying that after your initial install it worked fine than after you restarted it stopped working and that it works every once in a while when you restart?
