    Hi all,

    I have an intelPRO 3945 on my asus notebook, and am using a netgear WGR614v6 router. Both have the most recent drivers installed.

    Both window's Wireless Zero and Intel's ProSet are able to detect my router, but neither can connect to it! The network has WEP encryption but im positive i have the key right. I have a desktop downstairs that uses a D-link wireless card, which connects just fine... and stays connected! Theres no error message or anything, it just says 'unable to connect to network'. Can someone please help me to fix this??
