IAS wireless issue

I am having a problem getting my clients to connect to the server
using IAS.

My setup:


Server 2003 Enterprise
lan1 - cable modem
lan2 - linksys wireless router wrt54gs v5


Clients - Windows Vista Home


I have set this up before however the only difference was I was using
win XP clients. So far I cant get any client to connect or
authenticate with the server there are a few error messages I get.

I have already checked and registered IAS with AD. I am not exactly
an
expert on this and could use any suggestions. I am wondering if its a
problem with vista or maybe something on that end is different than
XP, however I dont see a whole lot of options when configuring the
wireless.
I have heard that IAS can be touchy when connecting so i tried user +
password + doman as well as user@domain and from what i have searched
I cant really find a good article that shows how to set this up from
scratch, maybe I am missing something. All this is is a basic 1
server
and a few client setup I just want to beef up the security by adding
domain authentication and eventualy certificates (service is already
installed)


One thing I am not sure of is in the linksys setup for wireless
security there are many options that include a radius server WPA
Enterprise, WPA2 Enterprise as well as RADIUS, another question is
which one should I be useing, the RADIUS option has a WEP key in it
as
well but I dont have any option to use it either in the server setup
nor the clients. Can someone enlightn me?


Any help would be appreciated thanks.

The problem is the Vista home can't join the domain. This post may help more details.
