Default Re: Problems Connecting my new DELL Laptop to my Wireless Network

Hello again,

I just found out that the actual router I have is a Netgear model #
WGT624 v2

I called up DELL, and my new PC is working properly, but said that the
problem looks like I am using WEP, and Vista does not support this.
He said I might need new firmware for this router.

Well, when I tried out with a friend's computer, which is also a DELL
but running Windows NT, it would not connect wirelessly to my router
either. So it appears this is not just a Vista issue.

I wonder if there is a problem with the Dell Wireless1395 WLAN Mini-
Card (my friend's is Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-Card) connecting to
this router?

Thanks




firmware upgrade

WEP key - DELL said this would not work with VIsta.
