Hi there, this is my first post, after searching the forums I couldn't find someone with this problem so I thought Id start a new thread. I have a Vista Dell 1530 XPS laptop that is able to connect to a wireless network in 2 countries so far, in Germany it can't seem to. The router is set for a WEP security connection and I put in the network key as well. The result was this message: 'Wireless connection failed because the network denied the association request from this computer' After hours of googling and seeking help from friends, I am still stumped as to what to do. I am beginning to think that this is a Vista problem as the other 2 laptops in the household are able to connect with ease and they are not Vista. For reference the router is set for 'all users access'. Any help would be great, and lots of suggestions welcome so I can try them out tonight since I have to rely on the internet at work! Many thanks, Wackysparkle
