Hi
If you can not enter the WPA key and the network is secured it will Not
connect.
The security key option are Not up to Windows, the windows utility reads it
from the Wireless card drivers.
Download the latest drivers from D-Link. If it does not work with Windows
Native utility switch it off (

D-Link utility.
In general,

Otherwise, take it with D-Link support.
