I had just upgraded my Streamyx to 4Mbps today. From the package which I subscribed, I get myself a free TM DLINK DSL-2640B modem wifi router.
As I setup the connection, everything was so smooth and get connected to internet. I used a desktop computer with Windows XP to do the setup with WEP wireless security at first.
Then later I change the wireless security to WPA2 and try connect to the wifi using my Windows 7 laptop. Strangely, the the laptop cannot connect to the wireless network. Showing unable to connect to the network. So I tried out many methods like disable/enable the wifi adapter, turn on/off modem, restart laptop and even try connect using my brother's windows 7 laptop but also FAILED.
I noticed my laptop wifi adapting showing these : attempting to authenticate. What is this?
I never come across with such a problem. Windows XP can get connected to the wifi easily but not windows 7.
I try switched to WPA, failed and to WEP again also failed.
Anybody know what is the problem?
