Run the zero config.
Zero Configuration

Connections.

OK
I have, with the help of an MVP post, run a fix for the "Welcome" screen
issue.
I have run the Netgear WG111v2 install program, and plugged in the adapter.
Whether I use Netgear or Windows to configure the access, it just doesn't
connect. I have
a 70% signal strength and no encryption (yet), but it still will not connect.

Hi Mark
Unfortunately, the Linksys WAP11 is not covered by this link.
Could we look at why I loose the "Welcome" screen when I load the Netgear
program etc prior to actuallay plugging in the Netgear WG111v2.

Hi Mark
Thanks for the tip. I have tried that now and moved 1 of the new pc's to
within 2M of the Linksys WAP (WAP11). It didn't change anything.
Is there a chance that it might be a problem with the Linksys device? I have
noticed another thread showing problems with a Linksys/netgear combination.
Regards
Gary

I would guess you should first check the posibility of radio interference, or
perhaps some grounded object -between- the two wireless points (a Faraday
cage). The fact that they do sometimes communicate indicates that they at
least work. Move the systems to an unobstructed location, and turn off other
possible sources of radio interference.

Hi
I have a home network running a Netgear modem/router and a Linksys WAP.
I purchased 2 new pc's and also 2 x WG111v2 usb wireless network adaptors.
I am running XP SP2.
When I install the software for the WG111v2, the windows welcome screen
disappears and only gives me option of "user" to logon.
Even though the computer recognises the wireless network, it has trouble
connecting. On the osdd occasion it acquires a network address, it is
basically inopreable.
Can anyone help please.
Regards
Solo
