    Just bought a new Aspire 3693WLMi with Vista Basic. We have a basic netgears router. My two roomates had no problems connecting immedietly. The 802.11 b/g wireless will recognize our router but won't connect. It tries for barely a second and gives up. Have tried everything under Vista. Any advice would by much appreciated!
