[QUOTE="Gabrielc, post: 1521528, member: 137301"] Yes my friend, I remember I was mad, last night wasn't the first time in trying to sort that issue out, I did it in many other occasions but no luck at all, I was downloading and downloading different drivers, what I can only found on internet is that Apple is not solving XP SP2 troubles any more, in my last attempt to try it I decided to call my internet provided CS, all that he pointed me out was that it might be a software/compatibility issue, I told him I am running XP on Mac (and of course this kind of man are a bit scared of Apple) so he only mentioned to enter the router and try using a 64bit encryption and change my password to only 5 letters. (it worked with more letters though), so when I did it and clicked on "connect" the red cross disappeared and could finally surf the net in WI-FI mode. Very strange and this caused me lot of head aches. Hope this solution works to anybody else in troubles. :Blushing::Blushing: [/QUOTE]
