Broadcom 802.11n unable to connect to wifi signal. Please help
Hi all
Please help. I am using Windows 7 home premium and my network adapter is Broadcom 802.11n. I am trying to connect to a HG556a wireless router. Wifi connections are detected just fine but when supplying the password (and it's definitely correct) the connection
fails. I have tried an Ethernet cable and that connects just fine but the wifi problem persists. The driver is up to date and I seem to be out of options.

Hi,
can you try to disable the password protection (WEP,
WPA ...) on your HG556a wireless router and connect
without password - does it work ?LC

Please reset the router password. It seems the password cannot be verified.

Under windows 7 mine would connect "sometimes" briefly then say unable to connect .
To fix I went to the Broadcom 802.11n Network adaptor properties, then on the advanced tab I went down the list until I found "WAKE-UP MODE" which I set to "ALL"
Now it connects first go and stays connected.
If this works for you send me a quick email if you dont mind to
