Intel Pro and SMC router
I have 4 laptops connected in a wireless network using SMC 7004VWBR router. Two of the laptops(a Toshiba and a Compaq) have Intel Pro wireless cards, and the other two have other cards. The other laptops work fine in the wireless network. The two with the Intel Pro-s don't work with the wireless router. I have verified that these Intel Pro based laptops do work in other wireless environments, so the hardware seems alright. My configuration is currently: Motorola Cable modem -> LinkSys Router (for VOIP)-> SMC 7004 VWBR Wireless router Also, when I run an ethernet cable from the wireless router to the Intel Pro based laptops, it works fine. I have tried: - calling every support desk I have easy access to. - power cycling/rebooting/restarting everything several times. - I have looked at the Intel Pro website too, but didnt find anything. Any help would be great. RC wrote:

Have you reset your router to factory and tried it? Worth a try, I took a call that the guy had his router set to G-Only but his card was a B. A reset just assures that there "shouldnt" be a config problem. |
