Hey guys, this little laptop has me puzzled.
I've got a wireless network running, linksys n-type router with 5+ pcs connected through G. Untill recently my laptop was part of the network, too, and worked fine, but after i formatted it and reinstalled XP, it won't find the wireless network. I've tried the standard windows wizard and the manufacturers' (intel) software, but neither will detect the network at any range from the router. Other networks in the area, both secure and usnecure are picked up fine.
The router is an N-type set to 'mixed' N/B/G mode, the laptop supports B/G. I'm using a wide 40Mhz channel (11) with 13 being default channel. SSID broadcast is on and all other pcs work perfectly. Security is set to PSK-2 personal, AES.
what am i missing
