I have Intel Pro wireless on an older laptop. I can see my wireless office network and may shop wireless network in the list of networks. I can connect to the office network with no problem. When I try to connect to the shop network (which has the same WEP password)it tries to connect and then immediately says "unable to connect to shop" HELP!

Are they both on the same WLAN radio channel?

If so, the stronger signal will win.

Did you re-enter the WEP key for the WLAN connection to the shop network? Maybe it got corrupted or something?

You may be the 'one over the top' of the capacity of the wireless router.

You didn't post anything about a system crash - only a difficulty with a wireless connection.

Sorry, but not only does that tell me nothing, it also doesn't make any sense - when have you EVER known a system to crash that hadn't been running?!

We saw quite a bit of this during my time with Tier3 Sprint.... I would suspect the driver version or the Intel ProSet version. A newer version of the Proset may work, or even the newer version of the driver.

Hope this helps.
