| Speedtouch 576 hangs at "Acquiring Network Address" Wireless
Hi,
I'd be REALLY grateful for any advice here:
I have a fujitsu laptop with a built in wireless card. The wireless card connects to other wireless networks but not my home one.
I also know my home network works, as I am using my fujitsu laptop with an ethernet cable. My other laptop connects via wireless to my home network fine.
When I try to connect via wireless on my fujitsu laptop to my home network, I get:
"Connecting..." and it hangs at: "Acquiring Network Address"....
I've tried disabling the firewall, restarting the wireless connection and nothing works!
I'm using AOL (UK) broadband with a Speedtouch 576 router.
Can anyone help! Thanks - alex |

| your other labtop is able to connect wireless to speedtouch 576 router so why not compare the settings on your working labtop to non-working fujitsu labtop. That should give you some ideas to start with.
What the router's wireless settings? What are the access client settings of the two labtops? Is signal strength the problem? |
