Hi
I bought a Linksys WAG54GS for my parents in the summer and originally set the encryption up as WEP and they had no problems with it.
After reading posts on here about how easy WEP was to break and being up there just before Xmas I deceided to change it to use WPA.
Was working fine was I was there, but (typically) since I've left its starting to play up and now refuses to work.
I set the router to use TKIP & AES mixed mode and for it to cycle the key every hour.
They sometimes can use the wireless and sometimes not.
(i'm asking them to connect to the router admin page in case its a problem with the actual ADSL connection).
PC is using a USB wireless "thingy"
and using the Linksys connection software.
Any ideas why WPA isn't working?
They live 4 hours away and I don't get mileage!!!!
