Hi

I currently have a wireless connection to a BT Voyager 2100 wireless router. I can wirelessly connect to this using 3 different laptops all running Windows XP. Each laptop picks up the routers SSID.

I have tried to connect using a new laptop which runs Windows Vista, WIFI is Atheros AR5006EG. This laptop picks up all neighbours SSID but not my own.

Has anybody else encountered this problem ? Does anybody have a solution.

Thanks in advance

Dave

I've heard of people having problems with that wifi card and Vista, but never an invisible wifi SSID.

You don't have a long SSID, or any non-letter or non-number characters (spaces, dashes, etc.) in the name, do you?
