    I'm having the same problem also ever since upgrading to XP SP2 my wifi
    connection my router has stopped working. Prior to the SP install all was
    fine. Oddly enough, my laptop connects without incident.

    I've even installed the latest WLAN driver on HP's site and that doesn't
    help either. Any ideas what's going on? Also, I notice that for the IP
    address I'm getting something strange like "3f:f3:XX" for the IP address as
    if the thing can't see the DCHP. Also I can see my network but it just will
    not connect...WAP on or Off.
