Speedtouch 585 Wireless Connection Issue

Post by dpatel » Thu Jun 14, 2007 4:05 pm

Hi -

I've just purchased a Speedtouch 585 v6 router. I've got it connected to my PC (on Ubuntu) and it works fine.

However, when i try connecting my laptop through wireless connection I have issues. The PC and laptop can see each other and I ping each one from the other.

However, unless I keep the connection totally open (i.e. option to allow anyone to connect automatically to router) and no encryption, I cannot get internet access on the laptop. Works fine with a completely open connection. Clearly, I don't want to do have it open though - can anyone help?

I've searched everywhere for a solution but no luck; and I know others are having the same issue. See link (I've had similar issue to this too).
