Could access the 'open' wireless network as any type of user (admin, power,
user). When security wpa-psk was set up, could only access the network when
logged on as Administrator. Network set up as 'infrastructure' using dlink
DI624S router
 
Got the latest drivers and utilities for your wireless NIC? No policies
preventing the NIC utility from being used by non-Admin users?

Thanks for reply. In my frustration I re-set the router and re-configured the
netwok settings using wpa-psk security from the start. Have no idea why, but
I could then configure the NIC's on all user accounts. All's now well.
Previously, NIC's on all but admin accounts would not respond to changes in
settings?
