I have a new IBM X40 laptop. It includes a built-in PCI b/g 802 wireless
adapter. I have a desktop computer wired to a Linksys WRT54G router. The X40
is replacing a Toshiba laptop that included a Linksys PCMIA 802g adapter.
The Toshiba connected wirelessly to the router just fine using a WPA TSK
key. I am unable to get the IBM X40 to connect to the router wirelessly
using the WPA key. If I disable the key I can connect just fine. Is there
something about the IBM 802b/g adapter that I am missing? I am running the
router and the adapter in the "g only" mode.
