ok weird but I've finally got it. After your last post i noticed there was one auto generated key that was shorter than the rest. I used it and it connected fine???? Weird but as long as it works! Thank BCastner! Your deserve some stars!!

Well i did like i said I was going to in the post above and still no luck. Really the only difference between the two is one is a pci and one's a notebook adapter. Of course the adapter in my laptop is a gateway adapter and the one on my desktop is a linksys. It's almost like wep isn't working...

Well enabled wep....went to labtop entered on key and it connected fine. The went to desktop (the problem child) and entered key after a long time it connected still with limited connectivity and the same details as above. Entered a seperate key by the way. I don't understand...... I might try...

Here's something new. Ok I went to the router and disabled the WEP. Now I can connect both and receive the internet on both systems without a problem! But there's no way I can have a wireless network up with no key......any thoughts??

Hi, I really need to set up a decent way to test the microsoft updates before I send them out. I have one domain with a group policy at the domain level that points a auto updates to the SUS server. I have 2 testing workstations to use. One has XP and the other 2000. What's the best way to...

I have a G network setup and it working great. I've been kind of eyeing that music station that lets you play your music on computers to any home stereo. They only have .11 b out right now. I thought I heard if you connected a b device to a G network it would slow the entire network down to a B...

I have one user with a BRAND NEW Gateway system with windows xp SP2 on it. She'll come back from lunch and it randomly reboots or shuts down. I thought it might be overheating so I made sure nothing was blocking the fan and it still does it. Its very random also. I didn't know if it might be...

ok Open your active directory and find your users. Right click on a user and select properties. Then go to the profile tab. You'll see an area called Home Folder. Hit the connect radio button and choose the drive letter you want. The paste \\severname\usersfolder\Username you would use your...

also to map a personal drive you can do this through the active directory if it's a DC.

Thought I'd put this back at the top.

No it doesn't chances are you may have to configure a port to be open to play your game but that's it. A firewall is a door. If you say ok the door remains open letting traffic through. If not it's shut in your face.
