The only way to generate the floppy is to reinstall the
MN-500. Also, the MN-500 does not support WPA, only WEP --
the reason you are looping is that you are using the
wrong WEP key.
I would do this: go to the base station, and open the
wireless security screen. Copy the WEP copy and paste it
into Notepad. Save the file on a floppy. Go to the other
computer and use the floppy file to copy/paste the WEP
key into your network settings.
Otherwise, you can always reinstall the MN-500 and save
all the settings into a floppy.
