I have an ACER laptop running vista home ed sp2 and I cannot connect to my new WNR2000 router. I have brought a netgear wn111v2 which has worked fine with my pc and other laptops ( 2 run xp 1 runs vista). It did connect once but after robooting I cannot get it to connect again. The signal strength is good but even with nothing else connected I can't get this laptop to work. Please Help!
Perform the task below on the wireless VISTA computer:
1. Click START, Click Control Panel then click classic view in left hand side menu.
2. In the main screen, open up NETWORK AND SHARING CENTER.
3. In the left hand side menu open up MANAGE WIRELESS NETWORKS.
4. If you see any name in the list, please select the name and click remove.
5. Once the list is empty, click on ADD, select the first option, ADD A NETWORK THAT IS IN RANGE OF THE COMPUTER.
6. Click on your network name SSID and click on connect. If you have a password setup on the router enter the security key.
7. This should setup the wireless network.
I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue.
