Loose wifi when adding a networking device to my Fios Actiontec router

Ok so here's the story:

I switched to FIOS from another company recently. So far so good. I have a main hard wired desktop and 2 laptops w/wifi. All runon Window Vista
Starting about 2 weeks, ago, I coudn't connect wiressly anymore. I tried everything (re-booting, re-installing, etc etc, you name it). All I would get was "Local Access Only" (on all 3 computers) when trying to go wireless.

I spent a good while with a VZ tech on chat and in the end, he decided it was best to send me a new router.

The new router arrived today. And go figure, that was not the issue. I connect everything as instructed and still would have no wi-fi.

So..after much thought, I decided to unplug my Aruba Networks device from the router. It's one of those devices used to download data from a hand held computer like the one's UPS drivers use: http://www.arubanetworks.com/

AND! now it works like a char, wi-fi back on, on all 3 computers, fast, no problem.

I a assuming that there's some sort of networking/IP/whatever conflict between the Aruba controller and the router. Problem is, my boyfriend really needs it connected and I really need my wi-fi. So...any idea how I would go about adding this device to the router without causing any conflicts to my network?

 

THANKS!

Alex
