    Wireless Issues


    Hi Everyone,

    Is there an issue with Windows 7 and Wireless???

    I have two brand new laptops, when using there Wireless to connect to a Wireless Router, i get 'Windows cannot connect blah blah blah'

    If I use my Wireless USB Key no problem whatsoever.

    I have uninstalled, downloaded latest driver etc etc but nothing. I am an IT Analyst so 'should' no what I'm doing. One laptop is an ACER the other a DELL.

    Am I missing something????

    Any ideas would be appreciated
