I just bought a new Toshiba Laptop with Vista Home on it.
I have a desktop upstairs with Windows XP..
I have cable internet service through a cable modem and then to a linksys wireless & broadband router. With my old laptop, which also ran XP, I never had a problem locating the linksys network or availability and it ran fine.
With the new laptop, it shows several available networks that are secured but not my linksys network. Laptop is in the same room downstairs as was the old laptop.
How do I get the new laptop to identify and connect to my existing linksys wireless router?
To make things a bit more confusing, at one stage in messing around with the new laptop, a screen came up and it shows the linksys network and that it would load it automatically upon startup.....but it doesn't. Now what? What am I doing wrong? How can i fix it?
