First step for me when having trouble with WiFi security is to disable the security and make sure you can connect okay. I don't recall the details but I believe there is an issue with the Cipher Type, TKIP vs AES. Try changing to the other one. Also try WPA vs WPA2. No, you shouldn't need to drop to WEP. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's G-Books list, a group for those using G3 iBooks and PowerBooks (we run a separate list for G4 'Books).
