Hello all,
I'm having an issue that I have never seen or heard of before. Basically, I can't get my desktop PC to connect to my new wireless network. I just switched to a new ISP (Brighthouse) and they gave me a new modem/router (Model: Arris TG1672G). Whenever I go to connect the desktop PC to the 2.4GHz channel (5GHz isn't working but I'll mention that later), it won't connect unless I have the security set to WEP or Open. Neither WPA or WPA2 will connect. This is odd because the last router was secured with WPA2 and worked just fine. All my other devices will connect no matter what security is being used. Does anyone have any idea what is going on?
Computer Specs:
Motherboard- Gigabyte G1 Assasssin 2
Wireless Card- Gigabyte GC-WB300D
OS: Windows 7
Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the 5GHz channel is not being found because Gigabyte GC-WB300D will only find it if it is using channel 12. The lowest channel the router supports is 36. Seems to make sense to me.
