My Siemens wireless router is fully supported by my ISP and works fine
under Vista, and, dare I say it, Ubuntu Linux. The only thing that I
would point out to the OP is to make sure that you have your WAP/WEP key
typed
into the configuration of your wireless connection exactly, and be
careful with cases and 0's as opposed to O's. If possible, make your
keys lowercase letters so that there will be no confusion.
