1 have 2 orinoco cards, silver and gold, both of them work nicely with ami TCP and setupping them was suprilcely easy.

I have unencryptedl WLAN, so my amigas connect to it,  without anything in user-startup

You could try that, mean set your WLAN unencrypted for testing? Just for problem solving of course. That way amiga should connect first unencrypted wlan it can found.

Your IP settings seem to be ok, CardPatch and CardReset are essential to use.

What genesis connection window shows? Does it say connected? You can try to ping your router. Commands are in AMITCP/Bin folder, I have copied them to C: so that I can more easily use them

True, but with unencrypted it should work without anything special in user-startup

My router also accept connections only from those whos MAC addres is added there. If somebbody want to monitor my traffic he/she doesn't found anything interested, or he must be very interested things like this

I haven't ever tried to conect encrypted network wiht my amigas.

Without encryption it just connects nearest WLAN automatically, no need to conficure SID etc.

WEB encryption is not real encryption, make your wlan open and scecify MAC addreses that can connect to it, it is better.

WEB key is easy to broke, but with that solution they cannot connect your WLAN, they can just monitor your http/ftp traffic, note that: not https
