Using a laptop not listed as sold in Australia, loaded with Vista Home Premium, and my netgear WGT 624 will not recognise it. Laptop recognises a netgear router but despite sitting on top of it almost, says it is a weak signal. My husband is happily connected via the netgear router and he is 4 rooms away. Router security is WEP and I have entered laptop MAC address etc, also entered router details on laptop.
Can anyone advise what other settings I should be looking at as I have obviously missed something and I need the wifi up and running ASAP. Thankyou in advance.
