That is similar to what I was told.

i cant seem to find any mention of an amilo M704 on the web, can you check what model it is and see if there's any info as to whether the wireless adapter supports WPA? getting the latest drivers may help, i don't know.
I had the same problem trying to find any information on this particular model. Reviews are somewhat elusive, the only thing I could find is this one http://www.whatlaptop.co.uk/cFEthwZo-WckGQ.html

I shall see if I can find the drivers.

failing all else, you could buy a usb wireless adapter.
I'm trying to avoid having anything stuck out the back of this thing, as such items have a habit of catching on things which result in accidents Which is the reason for trying my hardest to get WPA working So I don't have to go down this route.

Thanks again.
