T23 WLAN & WPA2 encryption

Hi all

I have just reinstalled my old Thinkpad T23 Type 2467 with Windows XP. My problem now is that I can't connect to my WIFI.

It has a WPA2 encryption. It says that my WIRELESS card does not support this encryption. But it should be possible to use WPA2 with the latest drivers. So I downloaded the latest drivers from the lenovo driver page. He has since 2003 (?), but the same problem with this driver.

Is it possible to use WPA2 encryption with this old wireless network adapter? (IBM High Rate Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Combo Card)

Thank you so far...

Welcome to the forum!

To the best of my belief, WPA2 won't work with your card.

In all honesty, it's time to upgrade (the card, not the T23... love these machines... )

Broadcom b/g and a/b/g (4306/4309) cards have been reported to work in T23 hacks withou... and they are pretty cheap these days.

Good luck and let us know.

  • TECRA M2 and WPA/WPA2 encryption?

    I use a Macintosh Time Capsule as a router, but cannot connect with a Tecra M2 with card Intel (R) PRO/Wireless 2100 has LAN Mini PCI Adapter. The router uses WPA/WPA2 encryption? Why am I not able to connect?

    When I click on the network (which appears on the available networks), he doesn't want the network key.

    What is an encryption problem? This computer with this card cannot support encryption WPA/WPA2?

    In the wireless connection settings, you should see what Wlan encryption is supported by the wireless network adapter
    If the WPA/WPA2 encryption is not listed it then you will not be able to use it.

    In this case, you must change the encryption on the router WLan or will need to purchase an external Wlan (WLan USB key) that would support the WPA/WPA2 encryption.

  • Satellite P200-157: Atheros AR5006EG WLan - AES encryption in question WPA

    Hello, sorry for my English.

    I bought a SATELLITE P200-157 with VISTA OEM 2 months, since I can't use WPA with Atheros AR5006EG AES encryption.

    The LAN does not work because three other computers are connected in wifi on the same router. With the Toshiba pc, I just can be connected to the WLAN key if my router WEP or WPA - PSK TKIP. in WPA - PSK AES/CCMP or TKIP + AES it does not work.
    When the SATELLITE is unable to connect to the WIFI network, it return when connecting try 'Abnormally long network connection' = connection too long and after vista let me choose between a diagnosis of the problem or borrowed from another ESSID.

    Did I missed something let work AES encryption? Thank you for helping me, I have no idea to solve this problem.

    Hello

    As far as I know all this (encryption) WLAN settings must operate if the material and the pre-installed driver supports all this. I'm afraid that in your case, he can't do it because the wireless network card and all modes of AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption option are not supported.

  • WUSB600N & WPA2/WPA encryption?

    HI -.

    I'm setting up a configuration wireless at a friend's House. She bought a Linksys WRT320N Wireless Router & use the WUSB600N USB adapter on old Dell Inspiron 5000, that is running Windows XP.

    For some reason that we could only connect the adapter using WEP encryption - it wouldn't connect to the router using WPA2 or WPA encryption. Can anyone think of a reason why this would be? The WUSB600N adapter is supposed to be capable of WPA2/WPA protocols.

    Regarding the laptop - I think that she is under XP SP2. The operating system would be the issue?

    Although WEP works (its better than nothing)-j' wish to enable WPA or WPA2 encryption.

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    What version of Windows XP is installed on your computer? Is it Sp1 or SP2 or Sp3... Most of the version of Windows XP SP2 and SP1 does not support WPA or WPA2 Encryption. So in these you need to update your operating system.

    Wired computer to the router and open IE and then click on "Tools" and click on "Windows Update" and it will download all the latest security patches on your computer from the Microsoft Web site.

    Hello

    Have you checked if the address Mac filtering settings can affect the WLan functionality?
    If the MAC address filtering enabled your WLan card mac address has been inserted, then your laptop wouldn't connect.

  • Satellite M30-604: unable to connect to the WLan

    Hi all

    I have some problems with my toshiba SM30-604

    First of all, I find the product in the section support somehow, even I can't find it by giving the serial number! ???
    Even with the program auto-detection!

    The other big problem is with the wireless card.
    Since the first time I bought the laptop when I tried to connect with some internet wirless networks I had problems with certain types of escryption of these networks.

    If the network is an escryption
    WPA,
    WPA 2,.
    WPA - PSK
    WPA2-PSK
    I can not connect to this network and he brings a message, something like "the network may not be available at this time" Although it is.

    Even if has a WEP encryption and password isn't a 10-digit is brings a message like "the neck should be 40 bits or 104 bits and 5 or 13 ASCII characters and 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters.

    The last days I can not connect to any wireless network for the above reasons.
    I know that its an old pc, but it is very good even for today an I still use it even I have other laptops

    Please can someone help me?

    > First of all, I find the product in the section support somehow, even I can't find it by giving the serial number! ???

    The portable M30-604 PSM30E-0SY2K-GK is an old classic. Right?
    Well, Toshiba driver European page you will find three categories: Archive, book and Options.
    If you don't find this portable model of laptop in the computer category then I would say that the next step should be archiving. Right? To me, it seems plausible to check the area archives due to the age of the laptop.

    In addition, the books are sorted by serial number; means that you won't find satellite M30 604 but Satellite M30 PSM30E.

    To my knowledge the Intel (r) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 supports only 802.11 B Wlan standard and only the key WEP, WPA, encryption (AES +).
    FTP://download.Intel.com/support/wireless/WLAN/SB/intelprowireless2100mpci_prodbrief.PDF

    This means that if the WiFi network is not set to 802.11 B and if the WiFi network has been set to WPA2 encryption, so you won't be able to connect to this network.

    I am connected to the same router another device and it worked...

    Hello

    Believe me, there is no general solution, you must check all the settings of your operating system

    First of all that I recommend to check the parameters of the TCP/IP protocol if everything is settled automatically on.
    Then check if you are using encryption parameters right as standard (WEP, WPA, WPA2) encryption and the encryption key.

    It s also advised to reinstall or update the Wlan card driver

    If you used the windows own WLan configuration, I would recommend testing as Atheros Client utility or Intel ProSet Wlan client configuration utility. But it depends on the WLan card what client WLan configuration utility can be used

  • Impossible to activate the Wlan on Satellite

    I recently got a toshiba satellite, the problem I have is that when I initially shot to the top of the laptop the wireless light was extinguished, and the Fn F8 combo did not work.

    After long created this light.
    However in manage wireless networks, it upward with the wireless is not currently enabled.
    When I diagnose the problem he told me that I need to plug an ethernet cable.

    I'm not very technical and have not the slightest idea what to do.
    Any ideas?

    Thank you very much.

    First of all, it would be interesting to know what Satellite phone you exactly.

    Then in most cases, you need to activate the WLan switch first. It s located on the side of s for laptop. Next, you use FN + F8 to select the WiFi network.

    Finally, you need to configure the WiFi network.
    Either allow you to use a 3rd third party tool like utility Intel ProSet, Atheros WLan utility or similar or you will use windows own WLan settings

    Here, we need the SSID (name of the Wlan), password encryption, encryption of WLan, etc.

    For more details, please read the comments here in the forum or google.

  • running two SSID, WPA2 and WEP

    Hello

    I have a WRT610N.

    How isolated are two SSIDS that I can run?

    I know that one runs at 5 GHz and other 2.4 GHz.  I gave each a SSID and a different security policy: I run 'sensitive' under WPA2 stuff, and I run the other supported legacy hardware that supports only WEP (for example, my son Nintento DS).

    But these two keys to the same House, so to speak?  If somebody cracks my WEP network, can access the machines on the WPA network?  Or they are completely isolated?

    Does make sense?

    Thanks for any clarification.

    -Mike

    Yes, they are "two keys to the same House.   Home' is your LAN.   If someone crack your WEP and intones wireless to your router, then they have access to your local network.   It would be like allowing an attacker connect your computer directly to your router.   Being on your LAN, puts the hacker in a very good position to penetrate into any other computer on your network.    Your WPA2 encryption gives you no protection from someone who is already on your local network.

    The solution to your problem is to run two separate wireless routers:

    Modem - ROUTER1 ROUTER2-

    ROUTER1 is set to 'Local address IP' 192.168.1.1, encryption WEP, "AP Isolation" value to "activated", (note: no printer on ROUTER1)

    ROUTER2 is set at "IP address local' 192.168.2.1, WPA2 encryption, use a password (and not something similar to the WEP password).

    modem is connected to the Internet of ROUTER1 port

    Of the ROUTER1 LAN port is connected to the Internet of the ROUTER2 port

    Channels 2.4 GHz Wireless on both routers must be different and are preferably at least 5 channels apart.  Usually channels 1, 6 or 11 are working perfectly.

    With the above two router configuration, the Internet of ROUTER2 port should protect you from intruders on ROUTER1.

    Hello and welcome to the HP support community!

    WPA - psk (TKIP or AES) is pretty standard these days.  Looking at my years OfficeJet Pro 8600 he supports this method and easy is the way in which I connected to my home network.

    We just installed a more recent 8610 at the office, and he had no problem with the wpa/wpa2 encryption scheme either!

    Hi Elijah

    You can deal with a number of certificate on the laptop.

    If the wireless client is configured to use PEAP Protocol as you suggested the default setting is usually to check the certificate of the server. This would mean that you need to install a certificate on the laptop. However, there should be a setting on the client to disable the server certificate 'validate' If you do not want to (or cannot) to install a certificate on the laptop.

    See attached some screenshots.
