You are not alone. We had a thread going about this just a short time ago.
I'm running Win2K with a WPC11 v4 and a v3.2 router... Same problem. In
fact, my work laptop can't connect either. It has a built-in Prism 2.5
mini-pci card.
I just (a few minutes ago) finished resetting my router and reloading all
the settings. No help.
