XP laptop gets limited or no connectivty to wireless network setup to PC running Vista
I have recently setup a home wireless network to my home pc running Vista. I used a Linksys router and setup a WEP SSID. The internet connection is DSL and works fine with it being connected through the router on my home pc. However, when I try to connect to that wirless connection from my laptop running XP, I get a limitied or no connectivity message, even though the signal strength is excellent. Is there perhaps something I didn't do properly in the setup that would prevent the connection from happening?
