Toshiba laptop won't connectI am trying to troubleshoot my friends laptop. His hard drive crashed and
was replaced, but since then he couldn't connect to his linksys wireless network. I brought the computer to my house and was able to connect to my Buffalo Technologies router without incident. Thinking the router was the issue I went to his house with my laptop. My Dell connected without any problems. The Toshiba would connect without any security and when the security was adjusted it would connect but after rebooting would not connect again. Any help would be appreciated. Hi
First make sure that it works for a while without security. I.e., Reboot few times, use the Internet, etc. If it works well, then switch On security, put in a new password, and use copy and paste to put the same password in the Computer.

times. The laptop is also running Windows Vista.
