That's cool, Jim. Didn't she have a WEP key? Or perhaps she gave it
to you to input?

Hello list,
I went to a friend's house last night for a religious gathering. My
friend wanted to see my new M-power and maybe try it on her
network. She has a wireless router on her cable system. When I had
a chance, I plugged in my Sandisk Wy Fi card and scanned for her
network! It was found immediately and I was able to go on a website
to look up information or to stream audio. I even went to the NLS
site. When I wasn't reading scripture, I put in the card and
downloaded my EMAIL. The only thing I couldn't do from her house
was send my EMAIL but I could do everything else. I was really
surprised to see how well my M-power worked on her cable isp and I
think she has a linksys wireless router. She was really surprised
when my BN announced her network name.
Once I came home, I was able to send my EMAIL, no
problem. Perhaps there might have been some authentication which
had to be on or I needed some kind of password to enable me to send
EMAIL but then I doubt I'll be using her network all that much! I
was surprised to be able to accomplish all I accomplished on her network.
