Roaming Problems

[age99]

Hi all,
I'm am trying to use the roaming setting to get a wireless connection. I can see the networks, but when I select one of them, nothing happens, even though the icon indicates that there is a connection (and lists the %). There isn't a key required for the connection as it works with vista.

Can anyone enlighten me?
