Best Answer

Open network connections from control panel. Right click on your wireless connection. Click properties. Click on wireless networks tab. Click properties. Click on Authentication Tab. Clear the box for "Enable IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network." Click OK to exit. Status should now be "connected".

This seems to be a common problem w/XP and wifi, especially is you're using WEP. You'll still have to enter your password for your wireless network to get connected.
