Hi,

Wireless will not let me put in my password to connect. I am using Intel Proset/wireless wifi connection utility the strange thing is my wirless has an n in a purple circle but all the other connection I can see has just a g in a green circle. The other wireless i can see with just the g will let me put in a password, but mine sends me to a different menu before asking me to put in a password which it will not let me type into. Can anyone help?

Thank you

Wayne

IMHO Intel ProSet is extremely user UNfriendly

After wasting hours fighting with it I switched to Windows Wireless Connection Manager and my problems have ended for good!

You need about 10 seconds to switch and end the suffering
