Hi I just bought a MN-700 Wireless Base Station the
desktop is connected to the base station and is getting ok
internet access. I am having trouble configuring the
laptop which has a linksys wireless card in it. I was told
that the Microsoft / Linksys difference would not matter
and now I can not seem to get the linksys to configure
properly. I put in the SSID info and the WEP info in the
linksys program and it says connecting and never actually
does please someone help

Can you ping the router? Run command prompt and enter
ping 192.168.2.1 This will let you check that the problem
is between the laptop and router, and not in the router
configuration to get to the Internet.

Usually, it helps disabling WEP in the router and laptop,
setting up everything, and once working adding WEP.

Also, make sure router and laptop wireless are using the
same channel and same key length!
