new wireless router can't connect to pda

I have an SX66 and I bought a new wireless router. It will not connect to wifi and home but will connect to other places on wifi when I am out. Any one have any ideas how to help?

Possible idea, on my wireless router there is what is called a mac filter on my router any hardwired (cat cable) computer is automaticaly added to the list.

Could be that mac filtering is turned on, and that your sx66's mac address is not in the list. If thats the case you need to go into your routers setup and add the mac address of your SX66.

Another possible is Wifi security. Your new router may have the wireless security turned on and your pda does not or to a different security setting. Both could be on 128 bit, but one might be set open authenication and the other set to shared.

I would lean toward a mac address filter as it would be a little more hidden than the security settings.
