WPA-PSK using TKIP encryptor connection problem

[fiddlefuzz]

My conection problem
My Wireless Connection is WPA-PSK with TKIP encryptor. After i enter the pass key I can be connected to the internet and be able to use the internet only for a while. After about 1 minute I am unable to use the internet eventhough my status is still Connected.

Does the connection work reliably if you turn off encryption temporarily in the router ?

There are 2 other people in the house using the same wireless, but neither of them have the connection problem that I do. I was wondering if the fact that I use Windows XP SP3 Japanese version could cause this problem. If not is there a way to check if the wireless adapter is broken?

Suggest you do try it because not applying the correct passphrase or the correct encryption type is a frequent cause of problems and turning off encryption would at least narrow down the cause.

I have connected Japanese and Korean Windows users to UK systems without problems (apart the obvious language and slight ergonomic differences between English and those versions).

Yup, good call Fihart ...


No response from him ? Wonder if it worked?
