Hi basically, I installed my wireless broadband on my desktop PC it is connected to the PC using a Ethernet cable. Internet works fine.
I have a laptop (wireless enabled) and last week the wireless worked fine but I noticed my network was not encrypted so I installed the software on my PC and the network is now WPA encrypted and i have my pre shared key.
My laptop can see the wireless network and when I click connect I am prompted to enter my WPA key which is for example WPA-(6 digits). Then it tries to connect and says "acquiring network address" but this is all it says, it never finds the address but it used to before I encrypted it.
I have tried the broadband company but they are no help (Talk Talk) and also tried entering IP address in myself but still no luck.
Anyone got any help on how I can solve this?
Thanks
Will
