Hi
Apparently the new location is set differently than the one you have at home.
You have to contact the admin of the new location and ask for the connection credentials.
It might be that you would have to change the Wireless settings in a way that would not work at home. Record your current setting so you can switch back at home.

I have successfully used my laptop with a 650 card at my home location linking to about a 5 year old D-link router (Sorry, Don't have the model number handy)

I'm now at a different location trying to connect to a D-Link DIR-615. I get the message ("Windows in unable to find a certificate to log on to the network"

I was never asked for a certificate at the old location
What's a certificate?
Any idea what I must do? and if I do it will that negate my ability to connect when I return to my home location?

Thx for the help

Sorry to be so ignorant. I am the admin. I bought and installed routers at both locations and setup wep keys.
As happened in location 1, I expected to be asked for the wep key when connecting to location 2 but received that "certificate" message instead.
I don't know where to begin to address the situation. Any clues would be appreciated.
By the way, I now know that the router at location one is a D-Link DI-624 802.11g
