Comment 18 for bug 222793

I have the same problem when I try to connect to a 2wire router. The model is HomePortal 1000SW with WEP-64 (a 10 digit hex). I am trying to connect with a Sony Vaio VGN-C140G that connected fine when it had XP and later Vista (please don't make me go back...). My wife's MacBook connects fine. When I try to connect, everyone gets disconnected including the wired connection (saying "network cable has been unplugged"). The normally 3 green LEDs turn off and the top (power) LED turns red like I just plugged the router in. I am running Ubuntu 8.04.
