Malke:
I have essentially the same problem as Mark. My router is a Netgear WGR614,
set for WVA-PSK, and no such option is available in my HP laptop Vista
network setup.
Intel fixes won't work for me, since the laptop has an AMD processor.
The laptop does see the router's SSID, but none of the options available
will allow connectivity.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
