I am at a friend's home and trying to connect to her wireless internet but, while my computer recognizes the network, it says "connected but with limited connectivity" and will not access the internet. The orange LAN light is on (sometimes blinking, sometimes steady) and I have typed in the correct WEP password, yet the internet will not work. Her wireless is Linksys. She has had other guests use her wireless without a problem. Please help! Thanks!

Encountered this before. Very likely a wrong WEP is entered. Best if you could key in the WEP in notepad, verified it, then do a copy and paste.

Another thing to look out for: the router could have been configured only to connect to certain MAC address i.e. network card identification number.
