DI-524 Problems with XP

Excuse me if I've asked this before, but I've missed a chunk of this group
due to local problems. The wireless router works flawlessly with Windows
2000 but won't even see a network in Windows XP Professional SP2. A
friend says it's a known problem with a fix but I haven't found it.

Any ideas?

Again, sorry if this a duplicate question.

Did you disable the SP-2 firewall?

D-Link firmware v.1.05 for the DI-524:

Have you tried opening up the network? Just to test the connection?
I was having problems connecting to my DI-524 (firmware V. 1.05) from
my laptop (XP SP2) - couldn't even see it; saw my neighbours' networks
just fine! - until I turned off MAC filtering; there's an issue with
it in V. 1.05 (posted here when V. 1.05 was released):

Other than that, I can give you hope for a solution because I
connected without incident once I turned off MAC filtering, so DI-524
plus XP SP2 can work.
