how does it fail? any messages? No messages whatsoever, it just doesn't connect. Strange behaviour, I know. Any ideas? I put on a WEP/WPA key for the network, and set it up on the laptop as well. I disabled the MAC Address filter. :S

Hi, my wireless router is a Linksys BEFW11S4, version 4 firmware 1.52. I am running Windows XP on both the desktop machine and the laptop. The laptop is an IBM T43p series, running on Intel Centrino technology. Anyway, the problem is that I cannot connect to the wireless network via my laptop. I have tried everything, including changing the channel of the transmission signal and everything, but I still cannot get a connection. When I click connect from the wireless network menu, it tries to connect, but fails. I think my network router may be faulty, but the ethernet works perfectly fine, as I use it at the moment to link the laptop. Any ideas? Please help!!!
