I have a Netgear DGN2000 wireless ADSL router.I configured the router with WPA security.
I can connect to this wirelessly with a wide variety of computers, tablets and smartphones. No problem at all.
My daughters netbook can see the router OK but when she tries to connect to it, after entering the security key, a window pops up saying that 'the connection was unsuccessful' and 'This computer has limited connectivity to NETGEAR'.
When I click on the wireless icon on the taskbar and then hover the mouse over the NETGEAR entry, the little window that drops down shows the security type as WEP, which is incorrect. It should be WPA-PSK. I can then go to Properties and change the security type to WPA-Personal, change the encryption type to TKIP and put in the correct network security key, but when I do that I cannot click on 'connect' because it is greyed out.
Her netbook can connect to other wireless access points, with a variety of security types, without issues.
This is driving me crazy. Its a long time since I've been stumped by a tech issue.
Anyone got any ideas?
