| On the device that you want to connect to the network, right click the little icon in the tray for wireless, go to open network connections. Right click the wireless network connection there and go to properties. (going from memory on XP machine, can't remember off hand for Vista). Click the wireless networks tab, click add, then setup your network info in the next window. Put in the SSID of the network, make sure you select WPA-PSK (pre shared key) in the network authentication drop down, otherwise it won't let you enter the WPA key. Also select TKIP as the data encryption. Enter your WPA encryption key, remember prefferably at least 20 characters. Click on the Connection tab and put a check in tehe box for "connecte when this network is in range", if you have that option. That should be it, ok out the rest of the windows and give it a minute, if it doesn't automatically connect, open "view wireless connections" and connect it there. |
