Hi there, I have a notebook Dell with wireless board Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection. We have an access point in our office connected to the router and all other notebook access it without problem. My notebook detects the access point but at the time to connect, itkeeps trying to connect with no luck. Can it be a problem with driver? I have downloaded a new version but same result. If you can give me any help would be greatly apreciated. Regards, Antonio
What is the OS of your PC? Try to add the wireless connection manually on your PC and enter the wireless security.
What is the operating system of your PC? Do you have wireless security enabled? Try to add the network manually on your PC and enter the ssid and secuity if any.
Are you saying that there is a MAC address filter on the router? If so you have to add the mac address of your laptop to the router. If you're not sure with that, you can also try assigning a static IP on your laptop, maybe it's having a hard time grabbing an ip from the router.
The only way to check this is by isolating the problem. If you can connect to your neighbor's network on that same location then we can say that we don't have a problem with your laptop and the other thing is if you can bring a different laptop or wireless device on that location you can try if that will work. On that way you can isolate the problem.

Hi, thanks for your time. My OS is XP Professional. I have tried to add network manually. i tried the manual diagnostic tool (of intel wireless manager program) and appears to be an "association problem".. the SSID name is ok and i think might be a problem of mac address not listed in the AP... anyone has other ideas?
Thanks, Antonio
yes... my doubt is that there is a MAC addres filter, but unfortunately our branch has not the power to access change that. Is there a way for me to be sure that the prolem is this one? Thanks
