Rose, I had a similar problem with a Braillenote mPower I was using, and found that it would work if I set the router to 64-bit encryption, which generates a 10-digit code. Surprisingly to me, a Humanware staff person advised that 128-bit encryption was not supported by the mPower and KS7. You might try 64-bit encryption, since all else seems to have failed.

If the sighted friend has never heard of it, then they have never used a secure wireless network. The key here is "secure wireless" not open, even if you have wired computers connected, the router itself has to also have wireless capabilities. There are at least four different forms of security (not sure if there are currently more out there yet). It all depends on what you need to connect to the router as to how secure you make it. As for requiring another computer to set up the router, I believe so. The router that Rose and I have requires the installation of software via a CD. Since the BN does not have a CD drive and one cannot install software, you can't talk directly to the router to make your own decisions about what it offers. If any of this is incorrect, I'm sure someone will let you know.
