Here's the problem.
Running XP Pro on twocomputers.(no, that's not the problem).
After a week of happy struggle I have finally managed to get my
Thinkpad with a KCorp 108g wireless card to connect to both the
internet ( a shared adsl) and my home network.
It does so via a KCorp wireless router, a LAN port of which is plugged
into a LAN port on my Demon-supplied Speedtouch router/adsl modem.
The problem is that I can only make that connection on a totally
unsecured connection. Any attempt to enable wireless security and the
connection drops every few seconds.
My router doesn't have a usb port, so I can't use XPs automatic
wizard. But I have cut and pasted the key, so I know it's accurate.
The thing is, I get no error messages - it just won't connect.
Any help gratefully received...
TIA
Pete
