Hey all. Need to get this computer connected to the net pronto. I have tried two Wi-Fi adapters but neither work. It's an xp machine. It used to be wired so this is the first time its had the adapters / drivers installed.

Both adapters see my Bt HomeHub3 with 4 bars of signal. When I try to connect, it says 'waiting for the network' for 1 min and then cancels itself.

I've reset the router
I've tried different adapters
Reset adapters settings
Disabled firewall and antivirus
My upstairs win7 pc and win 7 laptop connects fine
The WAP key is the right type of security and the code is correct

What's my next step to get connected to the router?
