I ended up doing what I should have done in the first place – removed the computer from the domain, then added it again. That solved the problem. Why, I’ve no idea – sometimes you just have to guess, I suppose.

Have you checked for that using multiple scanners?

Then login and make sure the wireless network is configured as the default network and it is the at the top of the list in Wireless Preferences.

I can also log in to the computer locally. How can I check to see whether it’s connected to the network before logging in?
