Hi ,
I have a laptop which has wireless access by WEP, but one of our
offices has installed a wireless router and I can't gain access due to
it being the WPA-PSK protocol.

When I go into the wireless properties only WPA is available there's no
mention of WPA-PSK, how can I add it please?

Your help much appreciated in advance

Paul

Hi
It is a matter of just checking the type of Encryption (Security). The best
solution is to ask the Network manager for the exact parameters of the
security, otherwise it would not work.

Make sure your wireless NIC is using the latest drivers....and then see what
you can do. Much depends on the capabilities of your wireless card/driver
itself.
