Hi, I have a Netgear wireless router and I used to use WPA encryption. It works fine with that. When I switch the router to WEP (Automatic), the laptop doesn't detect the connection soon enough, and sometimes takes very long. When I do a manual connection, it says "Connected" for a second and then says "Not Connected". However, in the "Not Connected" state on WEP, I can still acces internet. I have a Broadcom wireless card 4318 (in-built). The reason for going to WEP instead of the fine-working WPA is that I made my laptop dual-boot with Ubuntu, and the defalt wireless security is WEP and doesn't have any other options.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks.
