I've just installed a Netgear 311T. It won't save the connection after scanning for the network. It sees the router and reports the channel and the connected speed. The software connection indicator in the taskbar changes from red to green. But it won't stop at that. It continues to scan through the channels, passing the correct channel and around again ab infinitum.

There isn't much to the interface, not many options. "Apply" when it's on the channel doesn't work.

Can I get it to save/stop scanning further when it's at the correct channel?

A second machine is connected to the router without any problems.
