I am trying to troubleshoot a Thinkpad R51 ...circa 2004. It is
running XP PRO SP2, and it is fully patched. The problem is that it
will not connect to any encrypted wireless network. It has no problem
connecting wirelessly to a unprotected network, but it refuses to
connect to a protected network.... any protected network, even one it
previously had no trouble connecting to.
At first I thought it had something to do with the IBM wireless
adaptor, so I updated it to the latest posted drivers. That didn't
help but it did cause all the old wireless addresses to disappear
from XP wireless network setup. There was one local protected address
that was working on that list.... but now it won't even connect to
that protected network.
I'm stumped...any thoughts.
