I'm an idiot.

I had my laptop connected wirelessly to my router and my pc wired.
Everything was working fine (apart from sharing but thats another story) Any
for some stupid reason I reset the router. Now mt laptop cannot connect. The
network is being picked up in the site survey. I do have 128 encryption on.
in the status/state I have associating but that's it.

Can anyone help?

I just can't believe I had it working.

Mark.

Sounds like you may have done a hard reset i.e. back to factory
settings. If so, you'll need to put in your custom settings again
e.g. SSID and WEP key.

Cheers Frank. I had a feeling it was a hard reset. Pity I can't remember how
I got it working last time. Although I do remember that I didn't have SSID
enabled.

OK it's working now. Had to manually add the encrypted password.

Thanks for reading.
