Default Cannot display 'AP Browser' when using WiFi card

Hi,

I have just purchased a Sandisk SD Wifi card and installed the drivers via Active Sync and have tried to connect to my network but to no avail.

When I click on the WiFi icon in the 'system tray' there are all the options available except 'AP Browser'; this is greyed out.

If I go through Connections and view Network card my home Wifi network is detected and show available but if I go back to Wireless Network Status from the desktop it does not have the correct channel or an IP listed although Associating is shown on the 'State' bar.

I have (temporarily) disabled all security on my ADSL NetGear Router and made sure it is detecting b & g wireless. The router does not pick up the Wifi card. I have tried manually entering the MAC address in the router but again no joy. I have tried inputting the IP address of the router into network connections again no joy.

How can I get this to work? I have downloaded the latest drivers from SanDisk, installed the SDIO update, have ROM 1.10

Thanks for your help

I can now get the Wifi card to be detected by the router and I have connection but when I run WinC I cannot get the card to be associated despite the fact that I have both WEP and MAC working and a padlock shows in WinC.

If I click-hold and select Connect it wont....

Turn off ALL security on your router AP and broadcast ssid see if it works then and then start working backwards back to your current config.
