    IT Guru question

    Have IBM thinkpad and having issue getting it to connect to wireless connection

    Try to go through the motions of putting SSID and network key , but when trying to enter network key it tells me there is not enough letters/numbers in it? like its meant to have 13 digits or something , what am i doing wrong ?

    Connects to internet via hardline no problem , on it now

    Cheers

    Try sing WPA instead of WPA2 as your wifi security method

          just fiy wpa is weaker protected than wpa2. (easier for kids to crack)

            Very unlikely to happen but Yes however a lot mobile devices can't use wpa2 correctly
