So i have this notebook of mine and it won't connect to my router. And in the off chance that it does it won't let me surf. I have WEP enabled and the key is also on the laptop. However it just connect to the wireless connection and it's been pissing the shit outta me for the past 2 hours.

 

any advice from anyone would help a bunch. oh and another note i have another notebook in the house and it can connect wirelessly just i can't on my notebook

 

wned:

 

By any chance, did you just upgrade to XP2 ?

 

what router? what WEP encryption? what wireless adapter?

 

do you have your internet connection connected to the router :doh:

 

Yes, oh and it wouldn't work prior to sp2

Linksys BEFW1154, 64bit WEP encryption, Integrated Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG network connection (802.11b/g)

Yes i do or else this computer wouldn't have been able to post

 

are you able to associate with the access point at all?
edit: that's linksys BEFW11S4, not 54

 

i can associate once in awhile and yeah i meant s4 sorry but when i associate it doesn't let me on/surf and i rarely can associate with the router

 

try this.. they recommend channels 1,6, or 11
