Limited or No connectivity - Secure Wireless

2466 Views 2 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  wahoo128
I have a network at home with a Linksys access point router with 4 port and wireless.

My laptop (win xp pro sp2)will connect using the wireless when I don't secure the wireless connection. It connects fine using the dhcp.

But once I secure it, my Intel Pro/Wireless 2100A adapter program will connect but I get the limited or no connection message.

Anyone please help.

Are you using WEP or WPA encryption? If you're using WEP, don't use the ASCII passphrase option, but rather type in the full hex keys. If using WPA, make ABSOLUTELY sure that your passphrases are the same, including case, and they should also be at least 20 random numbers and letters.
I am using WEP and using the the passphrase option. I will try your recommendation this evening.

Thank you for your response.
