Michael: found this little gem on the Help files, may or may not be helpful;
If you are using third-party wireless networking software, clear the Use Windows
to configure my wireless network settings check box.
If you are unable to connect to an existing wireless network and the name of the
network that you want to connect to appears under the Preferred networks list, click
the preferred network name, and then click Properties. In Wireless Network Properties,
review the settings to ensure that they are correct. If you are unsure whether the
settings are correct, contact your network administrator or the wireless network
adapter manufacturer.
If the Preferred networks list includes both access point (infrastructure) and computer-to-computer
(ad hoc) networks, you cannot move a computer-to-computer network to a position in
the list that is higher than the position of an access point network.
To provide enhanced security for 802.11 wireless networks and for wired Ethernet
networks, IEEE 802.1x authentication is enabled by default. For more information
about how to set up 802.1x authentication, see Related Topics.
