Other Tips
Issue:
When using the Windows wireless connection manager, I cannot connect to my wireless router. I 
receive a "Cannot configure wireless network" error message when scanning for available wireless 
networks.
Answer:
Another wireless client software may be installed on your computer that is taking control of the 
wireless client adapter away from the Windows connection manager. Either switch to the other 
software or use Add/Remove Programs to remove the conflicting client software. After rebooting, 
the Windows connection manager should be able to connect to the available wireless networks.
Issue:
When I attempt to connect to my wireless router, I receive an error message indicating that security 
settings on my computer do not match the settings on the router.
Answer: 
Manually enter the correct security key and encryption type into the Windows connection manager.
To enter the security key in Windows XP:
Go to View Available Wireless Networks and select change Advanced Settings. Click on the Wireless 
Networks tab. There will be a list of networks to which you have previously connected.  Highlight the 
network name (SSID) of the wireless router and select Properties. Enter the correct encryption key 
and select correct the encryption type as configured on the wireless router.
Go to Connect to Network, right-click on the name of the network and click Properties. Highlight the 
name of your network and go to Properties. Enter the correct encryption key and select correct the 
encryption type as configured on the wireless router.
