Hi, Julian...

I replaced my wired router along with a WAP with a linksys WRT54GL. It's
all working so far, except that I can't get encryption to work on my T60
laptop.

Linksys offers WPA Personal and WPA2 Personal, each with AES or TKIP.

XWLan offers WPA PSK or WPA2PSK.

3945ABG) only does WPA - not WPA2.

However, I have been unable to get a winning combination.

Another aggravation is that Access Connections [Fn-F5] tells me that the
wireless is off, and clicking to turn it on doesn't change anything.
Wireless does work if I leave it on in eCS and then boot to windows.

I don't recall whether the T60 has a hardware switch for the Wi-Fi. Check to make sure that it is on (look toward the front of the machine, under the lip).

Yes the T60 and T61 both have this switch - stupid idea in my opinion.

I actually wish my T42 had it as my T60 does.  When I am on a wired connection running battery (or just where there is no connection) I can turn it off and save battery.
The switch is not Julian's problem as he says it works if he has it on in eCS and boots to windows.
It is more likely a driver issue in windows.  I would update the wireless drivers and the power-management drivers.  Running System-Update may make that easier.
If updating the driver then Access Connection (AC) may need to be updated as well (make sure you uninstall AC before installing a new version).
