network troubleshooting
I have Sony Viao windows vista laptop. I always used to connect to the
internet using my netgear router. But for some reason, my laptop is unable to connect with the existing network. When I tried to connect with my wireless network, windows diagnose box appeared and told me to type the correct network security key for my network. However, I have never changed my network security key, and did retype in the correct key. But it still won't connect. the laptop was able to connect to a non-security enabled wireless network in my range successfully. And I checked to see that my network adaptor was working properly. All the other laptops at my home are all working (connecting to the router/network). I don't know if this is a problem with my laptop or the network itself.
