Well, for some reason, I was able to connect to the internet assigning an IP address similar to: 192-168.1.xxx. I also entered the SUBNET MASK and DEFAULT GATEWAY I used for the PC and Laptop. I entered the DNS & ALT DNS name servers.

I then started building the 'wall' back up. I made sure the exact MAC address for the AXIM was entered in the 'ALLOW PC's TO ACCESS WIRELESS NETWORK'.

I was still able to connect to the internet.

I then selected WIRELESS SECURITY and setup the following:
SECURITY MODE: WPA2 PERSONAL
WPA ALGORITHMS: TKIP+AES
WPA SHARED KEY: 31 letters / numbers

I was not able to connect to the internet after completing this setting, nor connect to my wireless network.

In the AXIM settings, I have the following options:

CONFIGURE NETWORK AUTHENTICATION

Authentication Options: OPEN / SHARED / WPA / WPA-PSK
Data Encryption Options: WEP / TKIP

I have it configured using WPA-PSK and TKIP. I've entered the exact same 31 letter / number passkey for my network.

I want to have my wireless network as secure as possible, but also want to be able to have my AXIM access my network and browse the internet. Any ideas?? Do I need to set my WIRELESS NETWORK SECURITY to something else?? WPA??

Thanks for the continued support.
