WPA-PSK /TKIP Connection dropping.

[TTStriker]

Hi,
I have a Proxim AP4000 and an IBM Thinkpad R40 with a built in Intel Pro/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI adapter.

I am running XP Pro on the laptop and have installed the WPA patch. The AP is set up to use WPA-PSK and I can get a connection. The connection will last for a few minutes, then it will drop and I will have to reconnect. Sometimes when reconnecting, it won't get a new DHCP address, so I have to try a few times.

The laptop is configured using the IBM Access Connections utility and the Wireless Zero Configuration service is disabled. I have downloaded the latest IBM drivers and utilities.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mark Pearce

Make sure 802.1x authentication is disabled for the clients under Wireless Zero Configuration, Authentication tab.

Then apply:
