Re: Wireless Woe - Please Help

Once again the scan shows that encryption is on. YOu have been told
repeatedly to switch it off. You state that you have but everytime you post
a scan it is on. You either do not know how to switch it off, or are
purposely jerking us around-- why do you expect help in that case?


....
This is while trying to connect to an unencrypted network! So the
problem has nothing (yet) to do with wpa.
