Hello Folks,I have been working with a BN with version 6.11 installed. Using the correct Ambicom wireless card I can usually get connected to my open wireless network but have had no luck connecting with an encrypted network. Our services for the blind in Utah has a class in note takers. The teacher has taught everything from the Millennium to the Braille Note to the Pac Mate. He uses an encrypted wireless network to access the Internet with the Pac Mate and would like to do the same with the Braille Note. He has, in fact, waited anxiously for the new update so he could do so. Over the past several weeks I have been to his classroom and we have had people from Humanware out to the classroom trying to get the connection to work. So far it hasn't. When the Humanware folks were out they disconnected his encrypted router and connected an unencrypted one. We were able to connect with this one but as soon as we reconnected the encrypted router, entered the wep key etc. no luck. Much to the chagrin of the Humanware folks the instructor fired up a Pac Mate to test the network to see if it was actually working and it came up immediately. A week or so later I came over and tried again. After being on hold for tech support at Humanware for a solid hour I gave up. My question is has anyone out there successfully connected to an encrypted wireless network and if so can you give any pointers on how you did it? I would be happy to schedule a time to be in the classroom and call you to help me work through this. This is an important issue which we need to solve if we can. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, Carl. are you sure the keys match? I initially didn't have my router
encrypted, but over the past month, I did and can connect without any
problems. I would think that the key might be an upper case or lower case
thing. What if you set the router back to defaults and then set up the wep
key again?
That is pretty sad that the packmate could connect and we could not? At
