Right, thanks for your thoughts here is where we are at. Firstly I had tried some of the items mentioned and am an IT manager so have a good knowledge of networking.
Here is what I have done and what the results are. Removed all security on the router (MAC filtering, hide SSID and WPA). Bingo all worked fine. Put MAC address filtering on and still no problems. Hid the SSID still working. Then put the WPA on and it stopped completely. I am having a similar problem to another posting at the top of the forum list currently. So disabled the WPA and bingo working again. So I decided on the WEP 64 still working. WEP 128 still working. Back to WPA and no joy. The network part is connecting but the slimserver will not start. Now here is my deduction and you can let me know your thoughts. As the WPA is working fine on my two other laptops and the SB3 appears to connect but cannot link to the Slimserver (which I know is working because my other SB1 is OK) the problem must be in some recent code that has been either released as part of windows update or as a slimserver upgrade must have caused the problem. My next job (though not tonight) is to roll back any windows updates on my W2003k server and then to reinstall an earlier version of slimserver. The fact that there is an almost identical posting leads me to believe one of the two items above is to blame. I must admit that I only use the SB3 once a week or so which makes it difficult to say which day the problem arose but it would be over the last 7-10 days I suspect. One other thought is whether the 54g part of the card has failed in the SB3 and I may be connecting at 11b but I will probably check this now. -- cmaskelyne ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cmaskelyne's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=775 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22836 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
