Lenovo T43 doesn't like WPA

Hello.

I have purchased my second Lenovo Thinkpad, a T41P and now a T43, and neither one seems to be able to receive a DHCP assignment when using the WPA-PSK setting. The wireless adapter seems to connect but then waits indefinitely for an IP assignment. The configuration screen for the wireless adapter shows several choices for WPA, WPA-PSK, etc but only WEP seems to work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Mark

 

Hi Mark,

Help us out here what are you connecting to (make/model ... )?

 

Satrow,

Thanks. I have been using a 3Com OfficeConnect Wireless 11g Access Point v 1.03.12 on my network for several years. I purchased a new Dell laptop two years agon and that has no issue with WPA, just these refurbished Thinkpads.

Also the laptop wireless device is INTEL PRO/WIRELESS 2915ABG MPCI CARD 802.11a/b/g
