621000 2007-12-13 23:40:00 Hi everyone,

I've recently bought an ASUS laptop (Z53Sseries) with Vista Business preloaded on it . Laptop has:
CPU: Duo T7300, 2GB of memory, 802 . 11abgn+BT wireless modem .

I'm having problems trying to connect my ASUS laptop to my wireless router (D-Link DSL-G604T) .

The wireless router is connected to the main computer via ethernet cable .

What's strange is my friend's laptop, which has Windows XP Pro and wireless modem has no problem in picking up my wireless router, and use the internet . Not so with my Vista laptop . This error message came up:

"The settings saved on this computer for the network do not match the reqirements of the network . "

Help!

You will need to reestablish the connection using whatever WEP key you chose - the original connection you setup on the laptop will not work. Once you have done this it should work fine. aarathi (13049)
