Hi folks,

Got UPC broadband installed into me house yesterday, the guy who was installing it used the wife's laptop to set up the wireless, she's since gone to her family home for a few days and can't connect to the wireless there which has never happened before. She's tried putting in the WEP key but nothing's happening.

Any suggestions?

Sorry, haven't been online. In laws have eircom, she got it connected there but now can't connect to the UPC again. Works when you stick the cable in but not on wireless. No other laptop has had the same problem.
