I've tried everything I can think of and can't get the MN-
720 card to work on a Compaq laptop running windows XP.
It will show available networks, I click "connect" and it
won't connect. One network is open with no security; I
can see it but I can't connect. One network is on the
base station for the MN-820 kit with WEP enabled and a
128-bit key; I can see it but I can't connect.
I have no problems connecting to the same networks with a
Belkin Wireless USB Adapter. But lugging around an
adapter sort of defeats the purpose.
I've now upgraded to XP Pro; same problems both before
and after the upgrade.
I've tried restarting the Wireless Zero Config service. I
have all available service packs and windows updates. My
PCI slot works fine with a firewire card, so it's not the
hardware. The card gets power: the power light is on. The
wireless light just blinks. The card works on a machine
running Windows 2000, which makes me think there's to be
something in the XP settings causing a conflict?
I've wasted hours on this now; please help.
