Gee, I have an hx4700 and its connected to my Linksys 802.11g (connected at 802.11b of course) Router right now. I had no problem connecting the first time. I also easily conected to my brother's Linksys 803.11g Access Point and multiple Orinoco Access Points (b & g) at several of our office sites.

Maybe you should check the following;
-Ensure that you router is set to accept "b" and "g" connections (assuming you have an 802.11g router).
-If MAC filtering is enabled, enter your 4705's MAC address on the router(you can find the address for the 4700 under Settings/HP Asset Viewer/WiFi).
-If WEP or some other encryption is enabled, make sure you have set this up properly on your 4700. I am using 128 bit WEP. Just for testing, you might want to disable encryption on both the router and 4700 if you think this is a problem.

Hope you get connected. Guess nobody told me the 4700 had a WiFi problem. My only problem to date has been the radio not turning on occasionally without a soft reset (not enough available RAM) but PPC Techs has remedied that with their 128MB RAM upgrade.
