I have an unusual problem ( at least I see it as unusual). My wireless
connects me to our house network without any problems when the network is not
encrypted. As soon as the encryption is turned on, even though I have the
right key I cannot connect to the internet through the router. According to
the control panel>network connections>wireless connection icon, my wireless
card is not receiving any packets from the router. Yet I can't pin down the
problem. any ideas?
The router is a belkin g adsl modem, 802.11g, 54Mbps. The wirelss card is a
D-Link Airplus.
Thanks
