Default New Acer Laptop



My new laptop has an intell 802.11g card but i cannot get
on the internet thru wireless MN-700. It says I am
connected to the network but it will not "get out".

Anyone know how to solve this? I have checked the key's
are the same etc. but still no luck!

Sometimes it helps disabling WEP on the router and the
card, setting everything up, and only then enabling WEP.
You may find the problem is elsewhere...

For the key make sure the key type, and key length is teh
same. Also you need to scroll to see the key in the 700. A
good way to get the right key is to copy/paste it into a
notepad file, and then using a floppy to transfer it to the
other computer, and then copy/paste back into the wifi card.

Also make sure Windows Wireless Zero Configuration is
enabled, and you didn't set any MAC filtering on the router
before.

You can also look in the router under security/logs for any
information that may help us diagnose the issue.
