Wireless Profile connected - no internet

Jwolfinstein · 02-18-2009, 06:07 PM

Recently got wireless internet and it came with a 'wireless gateway'. It works fine, the computer, two macbooks and one dell laptop(#1) can connect, but there is another dell laptop(#2) that won't connect to the internet.

#2 is basically a better version of #1 - it uses the same program to pick up wireless signals (Intel PROSet) and it picks up the wireless signal but it won't connect.

They both run Windows XP.

Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Edit: Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I didn't know if this was the right place

If your absolutely 100% certain it is seeing the network then it will be your log on name or the wep/wap number.
