802.1X help needed



Hi,

Using the documents found at this site:
http://home.comcast.net/~clearviewtc I am trying to setup 802.1X for my
wireless network.

First, the network. I have a Linksys RTP300 connected to my cable
modem. I have two wired desktops, running XPSP2 connected to it. I
also have my SBS 2003 connected through a hardwire to the linksys.

I have a DLink DWL-900AP+, revision B, which supports WEP and 802.1X
(supposedly), connected to the final open lan port on the Linksys.

I used the documents in the link above as a guide, pretty much
following each step (I don't have ISA 2004 setup). Following all the
steps, I got one wireless laptop (also XPSP2) connected (using a
DWL-G650). It worked great; saw the message stating it was
authenticating and everything.

Later, I booted up the laptop, and it wouldn't connect to my network
anymore. I tried to get it working, but wasn't sure what to do, so I
disabled the 802.1X on the and deleted the GPO Link in the Computers
node of the Group Policy Editor. I connected the laptop with a
hardwire, ran the gpupdate /force command, and was back on the
wireless.

I was trying again today, but can't get it working at all anymore. I
tried to relink the GPO and force refreshing the group policy, logging
off when it asked, and tried the connection again. No joy.

Any ideas where I'm going wrong? One thing I didn't do was set a
static IP address for the WAP, however I have it set to always get the
same IP address through the DHCP settings on the SBS 2003.

Thanks
Andy
