Home wi-fi problem

[XMMOTOR]

Windows 7 Home premium connects Ok with TALK Talk wi-fi, but twice I have had visitors with Widows 7 pro and it wont connect, says "limited access"?

Talk Talk is a service not a device. You need to be more explicit.
Do you have to log in to an account in order to use your WiFi ?
Do you pay for more than 1 account ?
Is your WiFi router/modem owned by you or loaned from the company ?

I use the Talk Talk router, its on 24/7. There is a passcode that I made available to the PC with Windows 7 Pro, it accepted it.
Interestingly when a cable was connected to the router from the same PC internet access was achieved.
A re-boot had no effect when the cable was removed and a further reboot when other PC's in the house were switched off (in case of an IP address conflict) had no effect! There is only the 1 account.

Are you running 5 ghz only, 802.11AC only? running 1024 bits encryption? Visitors may have "lesser" equipment.

I don't know, its all on standard settings and the 2 laptops on windows 7 Pro would presumably be on the same as Windows 7 Home.
