Assuming that you're running Windows, you'll need the Intel driver. I expect a driver's included with newer versions of Windows, but you'll probably be able to find a newer version via Windows update or the Intel site or the disc included with the card or whatever. If you're running Linux, you already have the driver. If you're running OSX, the card won't ever work (no driver). Mini 1012 | SSD | Intel 6200 Wifi | Ubuntu 11.10 64bit |

Or go to the Intel driver update utility which will check your system for the latest chipset and wireless drivers: Intel® Driver Update Utility - Simon. |
