I have an old T42 that connects with cable but will not connect using wireless. I checked drivers and even unistalled wireless controller and reinstalled it. It sees the wireless network but will not connect. I even tried a USB wireless divice and that could not get an IP either. It is running XP. Any jelp would be appreciated Bgaddis@aol.com

For sure check your security settings on the wireless network you are trying to connect to. Many older devices/network cards cannot connect to some of the newer encryption methods.

If you can´t get an IP from your Router and cheked that the SSID and password is correct, it seems like the routers mac-adress filter is active or the Router is set so, that it doesn´t allows connections from "unknown" devices.

Please check security type
First make the routers network unsecured
If its done check whether u r able to go online wireless
Then we can isolate the problem
If u get online,prob with the sec type
If not online,check the settings of ur router
Some routers may have an option like Access control list
Check if ur router has that option enabled
If its enabled,disable it

If it sees the network but does not connect, I would definitely check on your settings from your wireless router and compare it to what you have on your IBM.
