I just installed the Windows Vista Beta 2 version and I am having a couple problems with my network. I can connect to the network but i do not have internet access. My wireless network card also will not connect to either of my 2 wireless network. I have 2 internal LAN cards and they will only connect to the network but not the internet. I had no problems installing the drivers they went in quite easily. I have troubleshooted almost everything I can think of. So now I am here posting on the forum to hopefully resolve the issue. I was going to contact microsoft but from what i can see they charg an arm and a leg to get help.

I just purchased a notebook with Vista Home Premium, and am using a Linksys WRT150N wireless router.

Without security (encryption) turned on I find the network and can connect to the internet without a problem.

Once I set encryption and a key, rather than asking me for that information, Vista simply tells me that the information on the computer no longer matches what the network requires - or words to that effect.

Where/how can I set the encryption key on my notebook to match the one I entered for the router?

Wireless Network Security Information that really seems to work

Very helpful information on setting up a complete wireless network in your home or office.

I have built two standard user accounts in addition to the main administrator account. The computer always trys to boot initially into the admin account. If I have applied a password to the admin account it gives an error of "wrong password" at initial startup. I can then select that admin account on the screen (only option) and log in by supplying the password. Then once in, I can use the "switch user" to get one of the standard accounts going. There must be a more eloquent way. I would like startup to be into a standard account, preferably with an option to select which one to use.
