Hey I'm having the same issue! Dell XPS15, MWT used to work superbly till I installed Windows 8 Consumer Preview (of course, I regret it, lost MWT due to it).
I tried reinstalling the Wireless driver from the CD I got alongwith the laptop, but to no avail.
Please, need help here. Thanks!
Agree. Intel ProSet does not work in WIN8. I have tried a number of approaches, and while the various tiles appear on Metro and all of the "tools" show up in Control Panel>Network the WiFi Network Adapter works (Intel Advanced-N 6200 ANG with Microsoft drivers 14.1.2.2 dated 10/6/2011), none of the PROSet stuff works (e.g., Intel My WiFi Technology" and PROSet/Wireless Tools").
My WiFi does not work on WIN8 (nor do the My WiFi Utilities). Period. This is a big loss for me since I have 6 other WiFi devices that My WiFi is a attaced to and therefore the WIN8 has a greatly dimisnished value to me, since these no longer work!s with some of the other comments, all worked PERFECTLY under WIN7 Professional and Ultimate.
I am runing an x86-based xplore hardended tablet. Is there some WIN8 new functionality to have the equivilant of My WiFi that I have not found?
UPDATE: I also tried using Intel driver 14.3.1.1 12/8/2011 - same results.
Seen as it is a consumer preview (not even a beta release) i wouldn't expect support for this product on the Windows 8 platform at this stage if i was you.

preview, and the next one scheduled for June is a pre-release,
and with a tentative rollout for October, these are the betas.
I'd guess the prerelease will fix 75% of these types of issues.
In the mean time, I've installed it in VMware Workstation, and
set it up to NAT off the interface so it will work no matter
what type of connection I have.
Hi Guys,
I just upgraded to Windows 8 Pro. And while I do have my wifi setup as a hotspot, my smart phone connects to it, but internet sharing refuses to work. I have absolutely no clue what to look at. This worked like a charm in Windows 7 pro. Getting frustrated trying to figure out what to do.
Yesterday, I figured my android music wouldnt play via bluetooth on Windows 8, again something that worked great on windows 7.
I am really trying to accept Win8 but each one of these issues is pushing me against it!
My system
Dell XPS15.
Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230
