laptop wireless connection
I have a linksys wireless G router and a linksys wireless external nic card for my dell laptop. When I first installed the nic card there were no problems with the connection. All of sudden I am having trouble connecting to the internet through the wireless. The router is setup for DHCP and the card is setup the same. I tried to use a static IP, but no luck. The nic card recognizes the router and has an excellent signal, but does not connect.

Re: laptop wireless connection
First step would be to disable all encryption on the router and see if you can connect, this sounds like mismatched encryption keys.
