You cannot reconnect to a wireless network that uses a hidden SSID after you manually disconnect from that network on a Windows XP Service Pack 2-based computer
Above ^ is the link to the exact problem im having.
The wireless network we all share at home is MAX OUT on security.
I have XP Pro sp2. Dell laptop. The trouble just suddenly happened one day...2 weeks ago...
I cant connect to the network, non-brodcasting SSID network...
It is there, but not listed, and not connected in my network listing...
But it will suddenly see it and connect, very very random.
Look at the above link)))
If i COULD find the download link i would download it and have the glitch 'fixed'
but if you notice that if you click on the download page at the top...it lists a bunch of foreign languages that the hotfix is avalable for. ENGLISH is not listed, but the article CLEAR says and talks about the 'english hotfix.'
So whats the deal...??
and i cant find the filename of the hotfix to search and find it someplace else...??
anyone help me out?
also, I have just downloaded XP service pack 3, but hesitant to actually install it.
This one little annoying problem seems to occur anytime i disconnect from my home network, onto another, or if i were to disable then enable...it would be "lost"
is service pack 3 safe??
This is my laptop with ALL my music and ALL my work stuff (emails, contracts, files, etc)
so i CANT AFFORD TO GAMBLE! Ive read that after installing sp3, SOME software may have to be re-installed....no way! i cant chance it!
thoughts?
