Hi djbillyd,1. Did you make any recent changes to the computer?2. Did you try creating a new workgroup name and connect again?3. Are you using Windows 7 to create network connection and joing Vista and XP systems?

In the Start Search box type "devmgmt.msc" and press Enter.b. Expand "Network Adapters", double-click on the entry of the wireless network device.c. Click the tab "Driver", click "Uninstall".d. Restart the computerYou may also refer the manufacturer’s website and try to download the latest drivers.
