Help! I have spent hours trying to connect my Dell 600m wireless card
to my home network.
The home network is a D-Link DI-624 set at WPA2-AES with a nine
digit/number network passphrase. I know this is all set correctly as
my Toshiba laptop with a NetGear wireless card connects no problem.
The Dell defaults to WEP with an open system, when I change them to
the above configuration and try to connect it doesn't and defaults
back to WEP/open.
I have tried to manually enter everything but with no results.
The Dell wireless card is a Broadcom network adapter.
I have also hardwired the laptop to the router and it connects with no
problem.
I can't figure this one out is it a setting or is the card messed up?
I should mention everything was working perfectly before I set-up the
security so I highly doubt it's the card as I can connect to any open
system with the laptop.
Please post messages here as my e-mail addy will not work.

Thanks

Terry

I assume you haven't enabled MAC address filtering on the router, and failed
to include the MAC address of this new card in its pass list?
