Hi all, I have a quite fast computer that was built for me and it is running Windows XP Prof, I also have another in the kitchen with same operating system. These are linked via a Linksys WRT54G Router (Wireless) not hard wired.
The system has been working fine since installation and still does, but the problem is, I have purchased a nice new Lap Top. A Compaq Presario F600. AMD64 AthlonX2, With Broadcom Wireless and running Windows Vista Home Premium. Although it picks up my wireless net work it keeps rejecting it when i try to connect. I have taken it back to the shop and it links instantly to their network. so it may be at my end. As i am not up tampering with this type of thing some suggestions would be very welcome to try and get the lap top linked into my system. Thanks in advance for any help received.
