Can't connect Samsung netbook to Netgear router
I've just bought a Samsung N145 netbook running Windows 7 Starter. I can't get it to connect to my Netgear router (WGR614). The wireless utility can see my network but when I try to connect to it I get an error message saying there's a problem with the access point but the help files don't actually help.
My Dell laptop can connect OK and the netbook connects via an ethernet cable. I've checked online and my router should be compatible with the notebook and I've also checked for updates to the router software.
I've also tried turning off the WEP encryption on the router and the netbooks firewall without success.
Can anyone suggest what I could try to get connected?
