When running bootcamp I can see wireless networks but not mine.

Hi there.


I've just installed windows 7 (32 bit) on my macbook using bootcamp assistant. After the install, I put in my osx cd to install the drivers. However, when I look at the wireless networks I cannot see my home network (SkyCode1) - but I can see all the other networks around me. If I boot into OSx in the same location I pick up SkyCode1 at full strength and can connect perfectly. If I connect an ethernet cable while in Windows 7 I can connect to the internet (but still not the wireless).


If I log in to get the status of the network I am presented with the following summary:


Status of your broadband and wireless network.
BroadbandConnected
WirelessEnabled
Wireless Network Name (SSID)SKYC0DE1
Wireless Network VisibleYes
Wireless Channel13
Wireless EncryptionWPA/WPA2-PSK


I have a PC laptop on the same desk, running Windows 7 and it can see and connect to the network also.


My question is, why does Windows 7 on my mac seem unable to even see the network, let alone connect to it.


Cheers,

J

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
