Can you specify what is occurring? What's your wireless, an AEBS(n)? Does the MBP see the wireless, but just can't connect to it? Give us all the details and we can probably help you diagnose it.

Hey man. Yea, I had the same problem and error attempting to connect to my WEP network. The ONLY fix I have found for it so far is to actually change the networks SSID completely and attempt to connect with the same password and other settings. I have no idea why this works, and it makes no sense to me but meh....PLEASE, tell me if this works for as I am extrememly curious if it works for anyone but me...Later

Oh, and just for reference sake, I have a 2.33Ghz MBP C2D.

throw it away (or put it in the trash but don't delete in case it doesn't help and you wanna put it back) then turn off your machine (you can take the battery a while if you want). restart and try to find your network and see if it's better.
