Acer wireless lan issues
Hi All
I need some help with a wireless lan issue on a windows 7 machine,Aspire 5532 with atheros wireless built in.
I am running a wireless network with wep setup (some older machine not supporting wpa) I have a number of xp pc on the network running fine along with a macbook and a windows 7 Fujitsu with no problems. This new acer can see my home network but as soon as you click connect it just ask you to diagnose the error and does not even ask for the wireless password.
I have updated the drive both on the acer site and on the atheros site and still I can't connect to the network. I have also tried to manually configure the network in the settings as well.
Can anyone shed any light on this as its driving me nuts.
