Default CANNOT SET SECURITY ON NETWORK

Yeah, I have the same problem. Why will the WPA key work with XP Pro and not
Vista?

Vista does allow the use of WPA protection on wireless connections, when
you
setup your adapter to connect wirelessly, if your router is configured for
WPA, Vista will notify and ask for your passphrase then ask for you to
retype
it for confirmation. Be patient, it's all new and it'll take you a while
to
get around it. Just remember, use Microsofts reporting utility with every
little issue you encounter, the more we tell Microsoft, the better this OS
will be when it is publically released for commercial sale.


Unfortunately not in my case. Doesn't matter if I use WPA1 or 2. I'm using
TKIP. It asked me to put in the passphrase, I dutyfully did, then t says
it's the wrong one, do I want another go, well, yeah, why not...... ad
infinitum.

I've made sure I use the correct key, it does recognise wireless networks.
