Hi, Microsoft has a KB article to explain this issue and provide a hotfix. An independent hardware vendor (IHV) profile may be unable to establish a wireless connection by implementing a third-party EAP method on a Windows Vista-based computer http://support.microsoft.com/kb/952613/en-us Please contact the recommended support to obtain the hotfix. If the issue persists after applying the hotfix, I suggest that you upgrade the wireless network adapter driver. Please download the driver from the website of the laptop manufacturer, and then follow the steps below. 1. Click Start. In the Start Search box type "devmgmt.msc" and press Enter. 2. Expand "Network Adapters", double-click on the entry of the wireless network device. 3. Click the tab "Driver", click "Uninstall". 4. Click Start. In the Start Search box type "appwiz.cpl" and press Enter. 5. Remove the entries related to the wireless network adapter. 6. Install the latest driver. If the above information does not help, please let me know the model of your laptop, also let me know if there is any error message when the issue occurs.
