Default Resetting wireless setup


I have a winXP Pro notebook which worked fine on my home wifi until I changed
my desktop and my router. They are working fine now but my notebook has no
internet access. When the notebook was new it came right up on the network.
Is there a way that I can just reset the wireless setup back to the way it
was right out of the box?

Sounds like there's some security or compatibility issue. Check the network
settings on your notebook to make sure they're in sync with those of your
new router-- i.e., channel number, WEP/WPA, MAC, etc.

Hi
It is Not a matter of resetting but rather reconfiguring the Laptop and the
Newer Wireless Routers to have matched settings.
You have to start from Scratch and build up the settings.
