Unable to connect
 |
Hi all,
After setting up my WPA Personal Security for my wireless router, I was unable to connect on my desktop.
"The network password needs to be 40bits or 104bits depending on your network configurations. This can be entered as 5 or 13 ascii characters or 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters."
The weird thing is, I can connect without any problem on my laptop, secured or unsecured.
Upon comparison, I found out the difference but can't really understand it.

Desktop:

From the drop down selection, I wasn't able to select "WPA-PSK" or "TKIP" on my Desktop.
It is something to do with the drivers? Drivers from Vendor's CD and what I found online are the same.
Please advice. Thanks
