the secured wireless network. However, now that I have Vista, I try to
connect and it asks me for: 1. Username, 2. Password and 3. Log on Domain.
The only information I have is the password which worked on XP before. When I
enter only that, I get a message saying "Additional Log on Information
Required" or something to that effect. I don't have any more information than
that.

Any help on this issue will be greatly appreciated.

I do not know if this is still an issue, but I was searching for a way to fix this myself. I went over to my brother's house today, and I do have admin to his router on his computer. I found that if I set the "NAT Filtering" found on the "WAN Settings" on his router from "secured" to "open" that this took away it asking for credentials.
