Hi all
I'm scratching my head a lil here. I haven't seen this problem first hand yet - but here is the scenario:
3 people sharing an NTL cable modem using a wireless router, secured using MAC address access list and WPA PSK. A fourth person connects (Dell Inspiron 1501) and this stops everyone else from connecting to the router. They have tried changing the router from a Linksys WRT54g to a Netgear WGT624 but the same problem occurs. The router is set to support both B and G modes. All the computers are different makes/models.
Other than the Dell causing the router to switch into a wireless mode that the other 3 computers don't support I can't think what could be happening. Any ideas ?
cheers
