I have a Thinkpad R60 with eComstation 2.1 and the original Intel 802.11b/g WiFi card. 

I've tried connecting the machine to both my U-Verse 802.11ac router and an old 802.11g Airport Express router and I can't connect to either. The Connect button is never enabled. 

The only way I've been able to connect the machine to the Internet so far was when I had my Android phone configured as a WiFi hot spot with no security enabled. Needless today, I would like a more permanant, secure solution.
 
Does anyone know what specific security settings eCom is looking for so that I can configure one of the routers appropriately?

The funny thing is, I have a second, identical, R60 with Ubuntu and I have no difficulty connecting with that machine to the U-verse router. 

Thanks for any help you can provide, 
Keith Sheehan
