wpa-psk similar to other post but could not find solution on r
my router is not set up for wep. it is set up for wpa-psk. in Vista I have
two personal choices wpa-personal and wpa2-personal I tried each and wpa-personal will at least see the router but not communicate the passcode. the wpa2-personal gives error message that settings are wrong. Really did not want to go to WEP since I have two other computers running XP (including this one) that are working just fine. If I change it would have to change these other computers. "Robert L.

Same problem
I am having the same problem. My network is set up as wpa-psk, which is not
an option in Vista. I have tried wpa-personal which lets me add in the passcode. But after setting it up as wpa-personal, its not showing up in available networks. Does anyone have a solution for this. Thanks.

Same problem
1. what router, brand, model, hardware revision, firmware version?
2. what exact setting is on the router for security? what are the choices? 3. are you broadcasting the SSID? 4. do you have the latest driver for your network card? 5. post the text output of ipconfig /all run from a cmd prompt On Fri, 28 Dec 2007 21:58:00 -0800, Stew wrote: I am having the same problem.

wpa-psk similar to other post but could not find solution on r
My router is Belkin F5D7230-4, Firmwa 4.05.03, the security options are;
wpa-psk, 128 bit wep, 68 bit wep, wpa(with radius server). The SSID is not set to broadcast. On my other XP desktop, even though the SSID is not set to broadcast, I do see a wireless network without a SSID which is my network. (it shows the encryption, signal strength, MAC address but not the SSID). On my laptop with Vista, I DO NOT see a network out there without a SSID (my network is not even showing up without the SSID as it does on my desktop XP) I changed my wireless setting on the Belkin to broadcast the SSID, with wpa-psk. Now I do see the wireless network on the Vista laptop and am able to connect. I guess my only problem is Id like to set up this without broadcasting the SSID but as of right now, I am unable to do so. Thanks for your help.

anyone that really wants to find a hidden SSID will do so very
easily. it is not recommended that you turn off the broadcast. see http://blogs.zdnet.com/Ou/index.php?p=43 -- On Sat, 29 Dec 2007 09:36:00 -0800, Stew wrote: My router is Belkin F5D7230-4, Firmwa 4.05.03, the security options are; wpa-psk, 128 bit wep, 68 bit wep, wpa(with radius server).
