Hi there,

I'm the administrator of my Dell Inspiron laptop running WinXP Pro SP2 and
have had no problem with wireless connectivity until I activated the Guest
account.

My administrator account connects fine, but the Guest (or other new limited
accounts) cannot seem to connect to the internet despite seemingly being able
to connect to the wireless network. The time to connect to the wireless
network is also much longer than on my account.

Any suggestions on how to solve this problem?

Thanks!

I have same probem on XP Home. Wireless network works fine for admin user.
Guest account (without password) does not see anything inside network
connections, and also can't add anything. How do I enable network access
for Guest account?
