Hello. I am a new tech and I am having issues with 3 laptops that are unable to connect to their specific wireless network. We are running Novell Client 4.91 SP3/Win XP SP2, it is a standard linksys wireless-G router and I am receiving "unable to find tree or server, etc." The wireless connection in this building requires an access key and a mac address to be entered, (which have been completed) I can log into workstation only and then see the network, connect to it, get on the internet, email, etc. BUT I still cannot access any of our servers. I try to bring up a Novell login and it still tells me the same thing even though I know the wireless network connection is working since I am also able to access the internet with it. I can bring the same laptop our computer lab and connect via the wireless connection to our servers without any issues. Can anyone give me some suggestions? Thanks.

Did you see the tree, when already logged in locally?

If you can see the tree then, try to log in to the novell server. Normally it should work.

The issue you described normally occures only at the first login screen, so when the computer was rebooted. It's just a problem on how WPA and WPA2 encryption is working. On WEP encryption, there is no problem.

it is happening because ur wireless driver is becomming active only after ur machine logs in

ay be u r using wireless connectivity by the tools provided by the wireless card manufacture ...try using xp's inbuild wireless feature ( wireless zero )

even if the problem persist remember that u have this issue only when u login first time ...try log off and relogin and it will work .or use the novell login from program files

let the mind be in charge than machines .
