I've tried numerous times to get my laptop (XP) to connect via wmwifirouter using either WEP or WPA. I get all the settings to match up and it never connects, or at times the laptop reverts to incorrect settings. If I change everything back to an open connection it connects in seconds.
Normally I use this at home where an open connection is no problem since the neighbors are at least 1/4 mile away. But I would like to have the option of opening my connection in public without worrying that 10 other people are hogging my bandwidth.
Anyone have any success?
