How to setup a Vista wireless connection
1. go to "Start Menu""Control Panel"Network and Internet".
2. Now go to "Network&Sharing Center" and select "Connect to a network"
3. Choose "Show All" and press the enter button. If you find active network
connections, select the one you want, click on "Connect" and don't forget to
check
the option that reads "Start this connection automatically". If you check
this option, Windows Vista will connect automatically to the selected
network
every time you log in.
If no networks are found, you can manually enter all network settings. This
is how you do it:
In the "Connect to a network" window, click on "Set up a connection or
network", Select "Manually connect to a wireless
network" and press the "Next" button.
First, enter the "Network name". In some cases the network name is identical
to the name of the
router
- for example, my router is a Linksys, so the name of the network is
Linksys.
Choose the security type and the encryption you use on your network. Now
type the security key and check the option "Start this connection
automatically".
Click the "Next" button, then click "Connect and that should be all. You
successfully configured a connection to a
wireless
network.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] How to get vista computer to connect to
passwordprotected wireless modem
Hi
Today we activated the password protection on our 2wire DSL modem. The
windows 7 and the windows XP computers both connected with some work.
However, neither of the vista computers will connect to the wireless
modem.
What can I do to connect these computers to the modem? I researched the
situation on the internet with no real help. I don't recognize the modem
connection interface on vista. It works very differently than my windows 7
machine.
Any help is appreciated.
God bless,
Mark
God Loves you!
