Cannot connect vista to NETGEAR router


Hi,

I just bought a new Sony Vaio Laptop but cannot connect to Netgear
wgt624 Router. It was working alright with my Dell Inspiron XP.
Interestingly, I can connect my Sony Vaio wirelessly to the unsecured
networks in the neighborhood. There has been couple times I could
connect to mine and it was pretty fast but looks like it is not working
all the time.
I have a Marvell Yukon 88E8055 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller. I am
not sure if this is enough info but any help is appreciated. Thanks

Re: Cannot connect vista to NETGEAR router

Might need to update the router firmware.

Check the Netgear site.

Re: Cannot connect vista to NETGEAR router


Thanks for reply. You are right, I tried connecting directly from modem
and it worked which told me there must be something wrong with the
Router. I updated the Firmware and it works fine now.
