Wirless connection problem BTHomehub
Hi all, recently got windows vista and im having problems connecting to a Bt
Homehub. I can connect to hub wired and also if i make it unsecure then i can connect but as soon as i set it to secure using WEP key then vista dosent even seem to be able to find the hub.The hub works fine when using XP. Ive also tried seeting the encryption to WPA and WPA 2 but have the same problem. Any ideas? Marc
