Hi. I have a D-Link DWA-525 PCI card which I've just inserted into my machine. I have installed the drivers and rebooted.

I added a new device along with the key. However it keeps telling me Waiting For Users. I just know I've configured it all wrong, something with the WPA or some protocol or other.

I am now looking at this. What do? :wtf:

Waiting for users cause it's in Adhoc mode i.e. working as an AP.
 
Just chucked the wireless card in the bin and ran a cat5 cable straight into the router. Problem solved.

Lan cable is the best way to go, BUT I still have a wireless card for testing or the odd occasion when something goes wrong.

Looking at your pic, I'd say you're in the wrong tab? You're in "my wireless networks" where i think you should be in "wireless networks".
