Re: Vista won't Connect to WPA

WPA security should already be supported by default by Windows Vista..

The WPA security is case sensitive, so make sure to enter it correctly on the Vista computer. Try deleting all the wireless networks saved on the laptop by going to "Manage Wireless Networks" then add your own wireless network (SSID & WPA-PSK security). Set the laptop to automatically connect to your SSID. Then power off the laptop and the router. After a few seconds, power on the router and the laptop and see it it will detect your SSID and automatically connect to it.

You may also try connecting your laptop to a different router's SSID with WPA-PSK security and see if it will connect or not. Also, try connecting a different Vista laptop to your own SSID with WPA-PSK security and see if it will connect or not. These are just to further isolate the problem.
