1. Wrong/omitted encryption key
2. Attempting to connect to the wrong network (Right-click the wireless
network icon in the lower-right corner of your screen, and then click
View Available Wireless Networks; then select yours and click Connect).
3. bad hardware

Is the one that won't connect an IBM and/or Lenovo Laptop that you recently
