    Why is my computer taking so long to connect to a network?
    I have a Dell netbook, with Win XP, and when I try to connect to a wireless network, it starts to connect, then it gets 'stuck' on "Acquiring Network Address". It eventually times out, and doesn't connect. I eve did that WCZ thing XP makes you do, and still nothing. Anyone have an idea?
