sounds like the router is configured to use the ancient (horribly
broken) WEP encryption, can you reconfigure the router to use WPA or
WPA2 encryption?


Without guidance I would answer no to reconfiguring.

Worth mentioning my PC and various laptops,ipads etc all work ok from
the same wi-fi signal, it is just this one netbook that fails.
