is the Linksys router set for security type WPA2+WPA or something
similar? many of the 'n" draft routers have that "dual" setting.

--This is less clear. I now have a new Linksys WAG325N router and it
will connect to the problem Vista machine even using WPA-PSK & TKIP
(at least according to the settings displayed). So it looks like I had
a particularly unfortunate combination and the 3com firmware for WPA
in the 3CRWDR100A series is at least a part of the problem.
One or possibly both of the 3com router and the Intel driver must be
at fault, but since I have now seen a router that will work OK on this
protocol I am inclined to say that there is most likely a fault in the
3com router firmware.
Of course the new router will not talk over WiFi to my older XP
machine so network defect irritation number is conserved
