Router connection failing winxp

I have winxp sp3 running on my Dell Mini 9. I can connect to my own
router (linksys) just fine, over wpa 2 personal, but I can't connect
to my work router (netgear) which uses wpa-psk. I get no error, it
just doesn't connect. I've reset the routers password so I know I'm
using the right one.

No errors, just no connection. Any more information I can give?

thnx

Er... what? I mean the netbook can't wireless connect to the router
at all, whatsoever. No http, no dns, nothing. The little tray icon
has no bars, etc. There' s no "workgroup" involved here. Routers
don't have workgroup names.

You are attempting to set up 2 wireless networks. Home networks works
correctly with WPA2 but Work network does not (WPA.)

Did you enter the correct WPA-PSK correctly when you select the Work
network?

Yes I did- as I said, "I've reset the routers password so I know I'm
using the right one. "
