Hi. I have got an Origo PCI wireless card on PC and an Origo PCMCI card wireless card on the laptop. They cant seem to see each other. They are both on the same channel and same SSID. I have tried adding the preferred networks manually and on pc it says connected and sending packets. On the laptop it also says connected but says No signal. Please help

Here is the output of ipconfig /all on pc.

If you are not using a wireless router you have to set both wireless devices to ad-hoc mode. Check your manuals for setup instructions.
