I have a new HP Pavillion dv2000 notebook and I am trying to connect to the
wireless network on my Dell desktop. The network is shown as available (but
also unsecured), I select "connect anyway", but then I recieve a message that
"Windows cannot connect to" the network. I have not gotten any results by
troubleshooting via HP or Microsoft. I'm clueless.
 
I have an HP Pavilion dv6000 and i am using a westell all in one modem/
router. The labtop has a Broadcom 802.11 b/g card. Every labtop that i have
tried that wasnt HP could connect to my router. When i use a usb wireless
card on this labtop it will connect. Why cant i get the built in card to
work. Is there something i am forgetting to do or is HP just making crappy
products? O and the modem/router never came w/ any software to install.
