Yes, I thought of that. But ISTR when I sought advice here on which router to purchase. It was sugested that WPA was more secure than WEP and so that's what I chose to use. I haven't had any problems using this particular protocol with my Inspiron laptop, so I can only assume it's something I have to do with Windows, but I'm at a total loss as to which way to turn on this. I would rather not use WEP due to the security concerns.

So I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction on getting WPA working with this laptop.

Thanks for your input.
