If I set up a second SSID on the router using the exact same settings as the primary one, I can connect perfectly with WPA2.NETGEAR RANGEMAX WIRELESS-N USB ADAPTER WN111V2 DRIVER The driver update doesn't work with this card unfortunately.
So it looks like it may be the driver - I have that on a USB key to try next.
It connected in about 1 second - maybe less ) Ok, so I am posting this update from my Ubuntu Live CD on the offending laptop. Oh, and I know it's not the Netgear router - I have FreeBSD embedded machine with an Atheros card in it that I am running in HostAP mode with WPA2 and the laptop is exhibiting the same symptoms when trying to connect to that. It just defies logic (or I just need a fresh brain to mention the obvious - whatever that is) Oh, before you ask, yes, Windows Updates are all up to date, and I have just installed the latest Atheros drivers and client utility (first thing I tried). I'm thinking I may just go and try my Ubuntu Live CD to see if I can connect OK with that. The IP it gets is a valid one from the router.īut, I am unable to ping, or anything, on the network.Ītheros diagnostics are telling me there are lots of packets being retransmitted and lots of CRC errors in reception. It appears eventually to fail and then suddenly instantly succeed. It connects and works fine with encryption turned off (I actually have 2 SSIDs set up on the router - one encrypted and one open but isolated)Ĭonnecting to the encrypted SSID it appears to authenticate with the WPA2 PSK, but then takes forever acquiring an IP address. The one that won't connect is Windows XP SP3 with an Atheros AR5007EG card. I have just bought and installed a Netgear DGN2200 Wireless-N router, and it's all working find, but I can't get one laptop to communicate with it using WPA2.Īll the other computers are working fine:
