Re: "Security network key incorrect".....but it's not

I'd make sure you have the latest firmware for the router, and then
reset to factory defaults. Change the channel from the default and
specify a new SSID. Use WPA2 and be sure to broadcast the SSID.

Does this make a difference?

According to the SMC web site this is only a draft 1.0 N router.
there could be a compatibility issue between the router and the
Broadcom wireless radio.

does this laptop connect to other wireless networks without
difficulty?
