Win2k

I have a Dell notebook with a built in wireless. Everything works fine when
I connect to an encrypted network [home]. I cannot connect to the network in
my shop [open, no encryption] If I turn off the encryption on my home
network, I cannot connect to it either.
In both [non-encrypted] instances, the computer recognizes the network,
sends packets, but receives nothing back.
I'm stumped, any suggestions?

XP has a checkbox or something that tells it to not connect to
unsecure networks. Do you have anything like this in your utility?
Are you using wep or wpa?
