OK... I have been working on networking my old laptop, my Dell Demension series i4600, and my dads custom pc... my old laptop is getting internet by a PCMCIA card. Both my Dell and my dads custom PC are in the workgroup... (I call it a network).. but when I try to get my old laptop in.. it doesn't read/ "talk" to the either of the other PC's. I believe my solution is to encrytp the data with a 128-bit encryption.. whatever you want to call it. The only problem is that when I do this the PCMCIA card looses connection to the router... is there anyway that I can fix this problem.. I have enabled the encryption process on both the wireless router and the card but it looses connection every time. Can someone please help me with this delemia.... please.... I do not know what to do for the hexadeciaml WEP key... I have tried disabling the firewall (Both Windows and Norton) but still it does not work... is there something that I have wrong or what....
