WPA-PSK for Vista?
 
My computer canīt connect to wireless network. It finds the network but when I click connect it says it canīt connect because the settings are wrong. Now, the problem is that my router uses WPA-PSK encryption but itīs not on the selectable list in the WLAN-properties menu. Is there any way to get PSK support for Windows Vista?

WPA-PSK is already usable in WinXP and IRRC I already set up a WLAN with WPA-PSK and a Vista Client. Even without transmitting the SSID. Though that was troublesome... :rolleyes:

Sorry, the problem has to be in your router (maybe yo're spreading mixed mode -> put that to only ONE mode -> Wireless G or N whatever your router is capable of)
OR
the prob is in your settings (we are humans we DO make mistakes ;))
OR
the prob is in your WLAN-receiver (PCI / PCMCIA / USB - device) which maybe needs the latest driver for higher encryptions.

Checked these and it still doesnīt work with Vista. With Xp or Win2000 I dontīt have any problems. In addition, Iīve been able to use other WLAN with the same Vista computer. Now I donīt have any idea what the problem could be. Thanks for the help anyway Icewolf.
