Hi all;
I've got a weird problem with one of our wireless PC's. It can see our router /network (as well as two other networks nearby), but whenever I try to connect by typing in the SSID and key I get nowhere, it won't connect. The router is a D-Link WBR-2310 and the wireless card is a D-Link DWL-510 Wireless PCI Adapter. I've tried "repairing" the connection, as well as disabling / enabling the wireless card, but still no luck. Any ideas??

I changed the wireless card and all is well now. Just curious as to why the other card could see the network, but couldn't connect?
