    Just got a refurb Asus for €100!

    Now the problem is I can't seem to connect to Eircom BB via wireless.

    Once I enter the wpa/wep details it goes into a pending state and does not connect.

    Anyone know where I'm going wrong?

    what model and what OS? On my eee on which I installed w2k pro, i need to use the Atheros client utility in order to connect to anything. Had a similar problem to what you describe when windows was managing the connection.

    Working fine today, with no change to the settings, connects after about 10 secs!

    Thanks for interest.

    Hi. You should think about moving from wep to wpa personal as wep is easily hacked. Also, the problem you exxperienced might be due to interference on the channel that you are using and might happen again.
