Weird suggestion - I sometimes find that the first time I try to use
the card after switching owner locations ( to use a different SSID) or
after the first time I put the card in the newt - that it WILL NOT
CONNECT, until I eject it and put it back in after having failed to
connect... I don't know why, but sometimes when everything is set
correctly and it won't work - taking the card out and putting it back
in makes it work for me!
Can't hurt to try it, no?
