She has no idea what the password was, and suppose that the asterisks are correct.

She hits the OK it disappears and 1 minute later opens again. Same thing with 'Cancel' and the X box.

She has done several resets the computer and continues to be

    Whenever I update "send/receive" a message asking me to write the network password and user name. This from my mail server (not orange because that one is ok I have access to the internet).

    Most of the suppliers do not let you send if you are not connected through them, or they have special settings.  So for now, see if you can access your e-mail via webmail and use this interface and in the future, contact your ISP and ask them if there is a way to send emails when you are connected through a different network.

    Edit 2: I found a solution for him in comparison to a second netbook we have. It was the type of connection, he was trying to do and unrelated to the problem that I had.

    Hello

    To make sure wireless encryption needs.

    There are a few types of wireless networks, and the response of PML due to a problem of the OP has the wrong configuration wireless for the network it is on.

    The wrong configuration mentioned in the thread is company 802.1 x, when it is off there is always a need of regular password to connect to a regular safe home wireless network. Which is probably what your wireless network comes with.

    I don't know what you're trying to connect to (or what you're doing), but apparently the connection you are looking at is safe and you must know the password.

    If not, tell us the story in details, so we can try to give you an answer rather guess.

    If you are referring to the logon wireless password, try this.

    Make sure that if there is Wireless Utility a utility vendor is not running with the native Windows wireless utility.

    If all the foregoing is OK and it does not connect to the wireless router. Journal from any computer that is or may be connected to the wireless router with a wire, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless streaming is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security .

    If it doesn't work without security.

    Swirch on security on the router and redo a new password.

    Then look at the management of the computer wireless and remove all entries here.
