Network printing asking for authentication

Greetings.
I am responsible for managing a number of Mac-based labs and user laptops in a school district environment.
I have recently upgraded my XServe to OS X 10.5 Server, and the client machines have been upgraded to 10.5 as well.
The OS X Server machine handles management only; network user authentication is handled by Active Directory running on a Windows 2003 server.
All users have mobile network accounts.
This issue I'm having is this: When printing to a networked printer whose queue resides on another Windows print server machine (any non-Bonjour printer), the user is prompted to authenticate with their network username and password.
It's not terribly detrimental since once they enter their username and password, the print job goes through, but I'm just really wondering why this is happening all of the sudden.
Last year, I did have a number of 10.5 machines that were being managed by a 10.4 server, and as far as I know, this prompt never came up.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you kindly!

Create an SM50 trace with only the security component turned to trace level 2. In order to do so, run transaction SM50 and select some of the dialog work processes (around 5). Then choose 'Processes -> Trace -> Active components' from the menu (or use CTRL-SHIFT-F7). Set the trace level to 2 and select only the 'Security' component. Reproduce the SSO problem, and note the time. Return to the SAP system to check the traces you just started (CTRL-SHIFT-F8 in SM50). This trace collects information on work process level. Therefore, you need to find the work process that has handled the authentication attempt.
This procedure is described in Note 495911 in more detail.

Proxy server keeps asking for authentication

My MacOS10.7.3 server coordinates a small subnet of 100 macs. To access the internet as provided by the larger organisation we must go through a proxy server. Unfortunately the proxy server keeps asking for authentication and checking the Remember This Password barely helps. Any tips would be appreciated.

Why would a commercial printer ask for Illustrator native files instead of InDesign files?

Why would a commercial printer ask for Illustrator native files instead of InDesign files?
For example, We create 32 hang tags for the same brand. Each hang tag looks identical except for a color bar calling out the different fits. We set the files up in InDesign with a Master Page congaing all the similar artwork. This process saves us a lot of time when making changes to the entire package of hang tags. So my question is... why can't the printer use InDesign. They are saying they convert our InDesign files to Illustrator before printing.

A printer who insists on native files but can't take InDesign is not properly equipped. It suggests they haven't updated their capabilities in 15 years.

SMTP doesn't ask for authentication, but won't send

Hello,
I have a javaMail program that has worked in the past, but since then I have switched ISP's. The new ISP does not provide email service, but my mother still has an account with the old ISP, so I tried connecting to the old one using her username and password. The thing is the old ISP doesn't ask for authentication, I can connect and it says sender "ok" but then it just denies my email saying "relaying denied", invalid destination address. I used to be able to send emails with any sender and destination email addresses from this same smtp server when I had an account(from my computer). So I guess my question is it still possible for me to use this smtp server when I have authentication, but it doesn't ask for it?
here is debug code:

If JavaMail doesn't see the "AUTH" line from the server, it won't attempt to authenticate.

Wikipedia asking for authentication

Hello all. I'm not sure when this started happening for me, at least within the past couple of days, but when I search for something on Wikipedia, or go to it via a direct link, it asks for authentication. I'm not sure if it could be the result of a virus or not, but I am currently running a scan. Assuming URLs work on these forums, here is a link to a screen shot of this problem http://img707.imageshack.us/i/authent.png/ This problem has only begun occurring in the past 8-10 hours and seems to be isolated to Wikipedia.
Well it appears that I can go to Wikipedia if I use a web based proxy.

Why is my public web site asking for authentication ?

Hi,
Why is my public web site asking for authentication ?
My web site and the section of the default page belongs to Public group.
My layout belongs to the WebAsset group.
The document inside the default page belongs to Public group and Web/FP/RepMetiersSP account.
Public group has only read access to everything.
Also, what is the difference between unspecified group (inside site studio designer) and Public group ?
Thanks,
Jean-Pierre

My fault. Inside this environment, I've specified the need for an account to access documents.

Why is google safari asking for authentication?

Why is google safari asking for authentication?

What's Google Safari? If you mean the Google search engine, it shouldn't. If you are access another section of Google, another app of fucntion, then it wan't you to log on to get to it.
You might try cleaing Safari's cache (Settings app > Safari > Clear History and then Clear Cookies and Data). but without knowing more about what you are doing, its hard to tell what the issue is.

Public page asking for authentication

Hi there,
I have three pages in my application (aside from the login page) that are publicly accessible; ie, they have the 'Authentication' field in the page attributes set to 'Page Is Public'. Two of the pages work fine; they are accessible to unauthenticated users and display without hindrance. However, the third page always displays the login page instead of the page itself.
There are differences between the way the pages are referred to. For example, setting pages' caches to be cleared, so I have tried using URLs with these components being the same and still get different behaviour. Also, they differ in setting variables in the URL so again, I have tried both setting variables and not in both the working and non-working pages and always get different behaviour.
This is most strange behaviour; I have, within the same application, pages which should work the same way but don't. I would create a test case but the test case already exists within the application (the working public pages) and doesn't cause a problem.
What reason could there be that one page set to be publicly accessible works fine with unauthenticated users but another page asks for authentication?
Thanks,
Robert

Hi Dimitri,
There's been a misunderstanding here. I don't use caching. What I mentioned was regarding the ClearCache component of Apex URLs (the 6th component.) Any pages listed in this component will have their item values cleared. This is distinct from Apex's rendering cache which appears to be what you're referring to.
The issue is to do with different authentication behaviour in pages with the same settings.
Regards,
Robert

Authenticated network Mount asking for password

10.9.4 clients and server, and server version 3.1.2
I'm using Profile Manager to try to mount a network share, by adding a Login Item to Authenticated Network Mounts, which as I understand it should pass through the users credentials. However after login, the user is asked for their password again to mount the volume
I have a golden triangle working properly - the AD credentials can be used to mount the volume manually, or if you enter the password when prompted. But what I want is for this to happen invisibly the way the old Automounts used to work.
The server was upgraded from Snow Leopard, clients are clean installed.
Any idea how I can get this to work transparently?

FYI for anyone looking here - DNS issue. When I bound to the OD server by just using the hostname (eg mymacserver) it worked, but after a reboot it was losing the binding for some reason. If I bound as the FQDN eg mymacserver.mydomain.local it works

Wireless and network printing transcript for Meet the Experts

On March 16th, HP hosted its first online chat event on wireless and network printing. Below is a transcript of that session.
I am in the process of planning the next chat event. I would love to hear what topics would interest you, what day of the week and time is best for you, and if you think an hour is too long.
So, if you get a minute, please let me know.
Here's the transcript:
SiobhanF-HP: Welcome! Cameron, Craig, David, and Jim are ready to tackle your questions.
SiobhanF-HP: Just to remind you if you want to ask a question, you must be a member of the HP Support Forums. If you want to join, go here https://passport2.hp.com/hppcf/createuser.do
nc256: Do I need a wireless router to hook up my wireless printer?
CameronL-HP: No, but most people will want to do it this way. You can use a feature called an ad hoc connection to avoid using a router, but it is only covered under an older standard that is slower and less secure. Also, without something to route traffic between the local network and the internet, you cannot get an internet connection. Using a wireless router makes setting up a wireless network easier, and it will generally make the network work better too.
jest1: I've seen some hardware in stores for a "print server" hardware device that attaches to a network. Is this something that I need in order to run a printer over a network?
CraigB--HP: Not if you have a printer that has a network connection built in. Many models of HP computers are ready to be connected directly to your wired or wireless network.
katiepage: How can I print when I am using a VPN?
DavidH-HP: VPN connections generally hide the rest of your home network to increase the security of the VPN connection. A printer on the network isn’t a security threat but the VPN doesn’t know that. It just hides everything just to be sure. That means that when a VPN is active you need some way to connect to the printer other than your home network. Bluetooth, USB, and even printing to a thumb drive and plugging that into the printer are all ways of getting your print job to the printer that don’t go through your home network.
SiobhanF-HP: If you have specific product questions, the more information you give us the better we will be able to help you. Getting your exact model number; any error messages; a description of your wireless network including what kind of security you have, what wireless-devices are connected to your network, and your IP address will go a long way to helping us answer your question.
MelissaP: Why would I want a wireless printer?
CraigB--HP: The main advantage of a wireless printer is the ability to place the printer somewhere in your home or office even if this is not near your router or computer.
Deltan: What is the maximum distance I can have between my router and my printer?
CameronL-HP: It does depend on your environment. Without interference about 25 feet. Walls and floors and other objects can reduce this. The types of walls are important. For example, mirrors and outdoor walls will greatly reduce the indoor range.
jest1: Is there a preferred wireless router type or brand for wireless printing compatibility? We are using a Linksys 802.11g router in my home.
JimB-HP: In general, any wireless-router from a name brand manufacturer that has been Wi-Fi certified is compatible with our printers (look for the Wi-Fi logo). We use Linksys in our lab with great success.
nc256: Are there any digital cameras that can send directly to an HP wireless printer for photo printing?
DavidH-HP: Many printers support a feature called Pictbridge. If the camera and printer both supports this feature, the camera can be plugged directly into the printer to print photos. Or are you asking about printing over a network connection?
KevinW: I keep hearing that you shouldn’t use default settings for a network. Why?
CraigB--HP: There are three reasons not use default settings: First, wireless-routers do not have any wireless security enabled by default. Second, you will be using a common network name in which case you may connect accidentally to your neighbor’s network. Third, your wireless-router is accessible by inadvertent guests who may change the configuration of your wireless-router without your knowledge or use your internet connection without your permission.
Bodie08: I have an HP Lan attached printer and Windows XP on my home network. Is there a known setting (Firewall/port/other) or patch to address the issue of hpqtra08.exe hanging on Windows XP Shutdown? A number of us in the forum have identified this issue. Thanks!
DavidH-HP: This problem has been seen in the past but there were attempts to address it. Have you checked to see if there is a later release of software available on the web? (hp.com)
ZhuLee3: How old is wireless printing technology? I noticed all the experts have around 20 years of experience with it, was there wireless 20 years ago?
JimB-HP: Wireless printing first appeared with the introduction of the 802.11 standard in late 1990's. HP has been making wireless printers since 2003.
lpeterson123: What makes wireless so flaky at times?
CameronL-HP: There are lots of reasons. Wireless signals are affected by distance, walls, metal objects, and other wireless devices like cordless phones. However, most of the problems seem to be from how the network or how security software is configured, and these can also cause things to fail only occasionally or in certain situations. Having a good wireless connection between a PC and printer involves several hardware devices and lots of software made by different companies that all have to work together; if something is not quite right in any of these things then the whole solution looks flaky.
Bowman16: I use a Mac, are there any features that would not work if I was to set it up for wireless use
DavidH-HP: All the features will work on a Mac if you install the full HP software solution.
jest1: Thanks for the answer on the router question. The next question, then, is to ask what would be a recommended consumer-grade wireless-enabled printer (or series) just so I can start my research.
JimB-HP: Any of our Photosmart or Officejet wireless printers will work with Wi-Fi certified wireless-routers. Our price points really have more to do with how much printing you do. In general, our more expensive printers cost less per page than our less expensive models.
Bodie08: Why would I choose "spooling" on my PC over "direct connect”?
CraigB--HP: In general, spooling allows you to use your program sooner than printing directly.
ZhuLee3: Jim: What is it like to be an "HP Printing Expert"? What kind of stuff do you get to work on, on a day to day basis?
JimB-HP: I really like my job -- I've always been a radio enthusiast so working on 802.11 technology is really a dream job for me. I'm also fortunate to work with a great team here in Vancouver, WA. More importantly, I like designing equipment that people use in their everyday lives.
TEACHER1: Recently I changed routers, now I am unable to print wirelessly, even though the SES and wireless network light are steady on my Deskjet 6980 printer. What is the solution? Thanks.
DavidH-HP: The wireless light indicates that the radio is on but does not indicate that the printer is connected to the network. First check that the printer is connected to the network by printing a network configuration page from the printer.
AgentRed: I get my internet with a Verizon wireless broadband card. Someone told me that wouldn't work with a wireless printer. Is that true?
CameronL-HP: Our wireless printers use the 802.11 b, g or n standard which is not compatible with the wireless cellular standard. It would be like trying to connect to a wireless network using Bluetooth. They are different wireless technologies.
DavidH-HP: Regarding the Verizon card, it is true that you cannot connect the printer over the Verizon connection, but as long as your laptop has Wife you can print to the printer over WiFi at the same time that the Verizon connection is active. This should not be a problem.
jest1: Is there a "minimum" internet connection that is recommended for wireless printing? We live a bit far from the DSL CO so our connection is sometimes flaky. I would guess that incoming speed shouldn't affect my local wireless LAN but I want to ask it anyway
CameronL-HP: There are 2 parts to your home network. 1 is your wireless router which manages your local network equipment, then your network connection to the world wide web which your DSL provider gives you. The connection speed of your local network is not affected by your internet connection speed.
Bowman16: Are any HP printers 802.11n? I do not want to add an 802.11b,g to my network and cause it to slow down.
JimB-HP: Currently, our printers comply with the 802.11g standard. We are investigation the emerging 802.11n standard.
ZhuLee3: Will there be a transcript of all the questions and answers from this chat available for viewing after the session? I think I missed some questions at the start.
SiobhanF-HP: The chat event begins when you joined. Sorry that you can't see what was said before you joined. I hope to have transcript posted tomorrow or on Wednesday at the latest.
nc256: Where is the future of printers headed? Does HP have any interesting plans with printing technology? And what’s your opinion on whether or not color laser printing will ever approachthe photo realism of ink jet color?
JimB-HP: The future of HP printing will be characterized by wireless connectivity to not only computers but to mobile internet devices. In fact, as mobile devices become smaller (think phone or netbooks), the need to print from your mobile device might become more relevant.
jest1: Am I able to print from my iphone to a wireless printer?
CraigB--HP: You can print photos from your iPhone to HP wireless printers and it works great in my experience. Go to http://www.hp.com/go/iprintphoto to get the details.
TEACHER1: Thank you. I printed a page. It shows that wireless is disconnected.
DavidH-HP: Then you just need to input the wireless settings from your new router into the printer. If your printer does not let you input the settings from the front panel, you can use the CD that came with the printer or downloaded from hp.com to configure the printer again ( look for the option to "add a device" ).
ZhuLee3: Question about security... if I get a wireless printer, what’s to prevent other people within range of my printer, from adding it and printing documents? How is this configured on the actual printer?
JimB-HP: The simplest way to secure your printer is to enable WPA-PSK security for your wireless network and to use a security pass-phrase that is at least 12 characters long. This configuration is very safe from intruders for the foreseeable future.
CameronL-HP: It' is also a good idea to use a unique network name, also called an SSID.
carolj: I have a photosmart C7180 and I have it hooked up to my laptop (windows vista) when the setup completed the printer was put in networking instead of printers and I cannot access it or move it out of there. What do you suggest?
CraigB--HP: You might need to uninstall and reinstall. Before doing this, make sure your get the latest driver from the HP support at: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=1153754&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us This is also where you can get a copy of the instruction book.
wizll: Hi, I haven't done much research in wireless printing, but I'm interested as I currently have my printer set up the old fashioned way where it's connected to a networked PC, but if the PC is off I can no longer print, which is obviously inconvenient. Do hp wireless printers have a web gui you can connect to once it's on the home network, or is it simply all done from the printer's interface. I've seen some old wired network printers that only use the printer's ui and that seems like a clunky use.
DavidH-HP: Yes, the HP printers which have networking built-in have what we call an "embedded" web server which allow you to configure settings, check status, and have many other features; on some models you can even scan using the embedded web server.
nc256: Jim: Will color laser printing ever reach ink jet quality for photos?
JimB-HP: While never is a long time, inkjet printers will, for the near future, output higher quality photos.
katiepage: If I'm at home, connected to my office network via VPN, can I access my office networked printers?
CraigB--HP: Yes, when you are connected to the office VPN, you can print to your office printers. However, you will not be able to print to your home networked printers while you are connected to the VPN.
jest1: If a friend comes over to my house with their laptop and needs to print something, are they able to do this just by authenticating with my wireless LAN (assuming I have a wireless printer set up)?
CraigB--HP: In addition to authenticating to your network, you friend will also need to install the printer driver for your printer.
jpszambelan: Is there a wireless USB device of some kind I can connect to my printer if there is no network connection already built in?
JimB-HP: HP sells an accessory that adds Wi-Fi capability to your USB printer (see http://www.shopping.hp.com/product/printer/inkjet/wireless/4/accessories/Q6236A%2523A2L) Also, many higher-end wireless-routers allows USB printers to be connected to them to allow sharing of the printer from the network. Note that this solution often limits you to just printing and not scanning from the network.
rockwoodchev: It seems that my computer can find my printer, but my printer can't find the computer, so that "Scan to computer" won't work. What do I need to do in order to fix that?
DavidH-HP: This can be blocked by security software running on the PC (such as a personal firewall). Make sure that your firewall is configured to allow communication on your local network. You can also unblock specific ports, but the easiest way is often just to allow communication on the local home network. The specific setting varies from firewall to firewall.
SiobhanF-HP: We are nearing the end of our chat session. We only have time for 3 more questions. If we did not get to your question, please post it on the Networking and Wireless board in the Printers and All-in-Ones forum. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board?board.id=Networking
SSPatrick: Is it possible to print wirelessly to the same HP printer using both a PC and a Mac?
JimB-HP: Yes -- I do this in my home. I have both Macs and PCs on my network without any trouble.
Bowman16: Any plans to do this again?
SiobhanF-HP: Yes we are.
ZhuLee3: Do all of the experts hang out on the HP community? Will we see you posting there after this?
DavidH-HP: Oh yes, whenever time permits. In addition to trying to help people, I learn things too.
JimB-HP: I'm known as Wi-Fi-Guy on the support forums. I hang out there often helping where I can. It helps me be a better designer.
CraigB--HP: I monitor the forums looking for problems to take back to the development lab for investigation. To date, I have only posted one reply.
CameronL-HP: I haven't been involved in the past but expect to be more involved in the future.
SiobhanF-HP: We only have time for one more question. If we did not get to your question, please post it on the Networking and Wireless board in the Printers and All-in-Ones forum. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board?board.id=Networking
ZhuLee3: Thanks for setting this up!
SiobhanF-HP: The transcript will be posted on http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board?board.id=Networking
TEACHER1: Thank you all for conducting this session !!!!
jest1: Is there an OS limitation to print wirelessly?
JimB-HP: All the OS versions supported by the printer as supported wirelessly. In general, we are compatible with Macs, Windows and Linux.
SiobhanF-HP: We are ending the chat event. Thank you for coming. We hope you found it worthwhile. I will be posting a transcript of the event in the Networking and Wireless board in the Printers and All-in-Ones forum. We will be hosting future Meet the Experts chat sessions on a variety of topics, so please tell us what you thought of the event and how it could be improved. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board/message?board.id=Feedback&thread.id=525

Java Applet Constantly Asks for Authentication

With have a ADF application on Weblogic 10 that has occasional access to a Java applet. The Java applet is loaded whenever it's needed and not loaded whenever it isn't in a facet. The applet is currently in the public_html/applet folder.
When we set the SSL configuration to requiring a client certificate, when the Java applet loads, it'll constantly ask for a client certificate even though the user already presented the client when hitting the website:
Request Authentication Identification required. Please select certificate to be used for authentication.
This is annoying to users and the Java Applet doesn't need authentication. Is there any way we can disable the authentication or remove the prompt?
Here's the embedded applet code:
<applet height="1" width="1" code="applet.Applet.class"archive="/app/applet/SApplet.jar" /><param name="permissions" value="all-permissions"/></applet>
Things I've already tried:
1) Setting the Applet up on HTTP instead of HTTPS; I get a warning about mixed content and still get the authentication pop-up.
2) Created a minimal applet that only types out "HELLO WORLD" in the console, still get the authentication pop-up
Here's the console window:

Actually, setting the archive to http://URL works fine. No more request authentications come up.

Flash movie asking for authentication???

Hi,
I'm new to flash 8, I recently created a simple menu with a
couple of buttons. When I view the movie in an html file on the
computer that hosts it, It appears fine. If I try to view that page
from another computer on the network it brings up a secure realm
type authentication window, asking for the username and password
for the windows account on the machine hosting the file. If I don't
enter any details the file never loads.
Why is it doing this? How do I fix it?
Thanks in advance

Create an SM50 trace with only the security component turned to trace level 2. In order to do so, run transaction SM50 and select some of the dialog work processes (around 5). Then choose 'Processes -> Trace -> Active components' from the menu (or use CTRL-SHIFT-F7). Set the trace level to 2 and select only the 'Security' component. Reproduce the SSO problem, and note the time. Return to the SAP system to check the traces you just started (CTRL-SHIFT-F8 in SM50). This trace collects information on work process level. Therefore, you need to find the work process that has handled the authentication attempt.
This procedure is described in Note 495911 in more detail.

Lion PAC proxy asking for authentication reapeatedly

Hello, Can some bro help with this problem which never happens with the same PAC proxy on Snow Leopard, like title says, Lion (10.7.2) frequently pops up the dialog asking for the authentication for the proxy server.

Do not use the suggestion to unload the notification center. That does not fix the problem.
This post provides the correct solution.
Usually a proxy authentication dialog allows the user the option to 'allow once' or 'always' etc, and to save the proxy login details to the user's login keychain.
But under both 10.8 and in particular 10.9 whenever a proxy is in use, the user gets bombarded with multiple recurrent proxy authentication dialogs without any save options and without any identifier.
Using the terminal command nettop, I discovered that the offending dialogs come from system processes, most notably syncdefaultsd. (How to do this at the end of the post)
The problem is that syncdefaultsd is not keychain aware. It needs access to the user's proxy settings at regular intervals, but can't get them from the user's login keychain. It's proxy request dialog does not have the option to save the details to the user's keychain, and worse still does not identify syncdefaultsd as the requesting process. Even if you open your login keychain to allow any application access to your proxy, syncdefaultsd will still keep asking for your proxy details.
The solution is to ensure that you have working proxy settings saved in the *system* keychain, not just your personal login keychain.
So when you next get one of these dialogs:
1. Note the server name that is requesting authentication, the port (usually 8080) and if it is an http or https request. Typically it will be something in the form https://someproxyserver.someorganization.com:8080
2. See if you already have an entry for that server in your login keychain. If not, make one manually, (being sure to enter the whole thing as per the example above with the :8080 at the end). Typically that there needs to be two separate keychain entries per proxy server, one for http and a second for https, though syncdefaultsd only uses https.
3. Once you have login keychain entries for the proxy server, double-click them and ensure that under Access all applications are allowed, and that your user name is saved.
4. Now for the fun bit. Option-drag and drop these entries into your system keychain. Click on the system keychain, and confirm that they are there, and that all the settings are exactly right.
For good measure, do a shift-restart then a normal restart.
You should now get no more annoying dialogs for that particular proxy server. If your proxy server has more than one alias, or if you have several, then whenever you get a new unidentified dialog, repeat the above.
I discovered it using the terminal command nettop, typing into the terminal:
nettop -m tcp
This lists all active network processes. If you quit all apps you should still see quite a few network processes. If you see syncdefaultsd, wait for it to go away, or kill it via the Activity Monitor. If you haven't done the fix as above, and you open Safari, you'll see syncdefaultsd open shortly after Safari, and the annoying dialog immediately appears. After the fix is implemented, the dialogs don't appear when syncdefaultsd tries to start up.
Hope this helps someone, and that Apple fixes it in 10.9.1
Cheers
Chris.

Network diagnostics asks for password for wireless network with no security

hi
I am trying to connect my Mac Pro to a wireless network which has no security settings. Other Macs in the house connect to the network with no problem, but the Mac Pro doesn't. I am setting up a new network as I have moved house. In the previous house the wireless worked fine on the Mac Pro.
When I click on the Airport Icon in the menu bar, the search wheel shows and it finds the network, but when I click on the name of the network typically it doesn't connect. Occasionally it does connect, and I briefly have internet access, but then the number of bars on the Airport Icon gradually reduce and then I can't connect again.
When I run Network Diagnostics from Safari, it finds the network also, but then typically asks for a WEP password for the Wireless Network when I haven't added any security to the network (occasionally it doesn't ask for a password and I can connect briefly)
I have tried resetting my Time Capsule and creating a new wireless network with a different name, but still experience the same issues.
I wonder if someone has any ideas as to what might be going on, and how I might be able to troubleshoot this.
Thanks
Nick

It is one of mine. Yes. It connects to it no problem, just doesn't connect to the actual internet. Network diagnostics has all green lights until the ISP and/or Internet point. If I walk through diagnostics, it will get to the point where it says that the network requires a WEP password. I don't know why it does that because my network is not password-protected (husband claims it doesn't work well with his VPN system to get into work network). If I leave it blank, the connection will work. Eventually, after the computer is put to sleep, I will have the same problem upon waking up. I just tried renaming the network and removing all preferred networks and rebooting. Let's see how that works.
