Re: asus eee distributionn

Has anyone had any problems connecting to a wireless network with the eeepc?

Curiously I cannot connect to my own wireless router. I can connect to another wireless network in my area with no problems. I've tried setting up barkot ( my Linksys router) with or without a wep key and it won't connect either way.

For some reason the eeepc can not pickup a dhcp lease. After checking a number of ports it just reports that there are no leases.

Yet I can connect to two neighbourhood wireless router. One is called default the other linksys. Neither of them have wep keys. This is fine but I would have better reception if I could connect to my own router.
