Hello everybody,
Well, after waiting for about two weeks,
I got my braillenote back from
humanware earlier today. In addition to restoring files, and putting things
back the way I had them,
I've also been fiddling around with my wireless card and my bn. Don't quite
know how it happened, but somehow or another, I've located a wireless network!,
well at least two of them anyway. It was really exciting, because for the
longest time, I haven't been able to locate one in my area. I inserted my
ambicom
card, did the reset, turned on the wireless ethernet option, scrolled down to
the scan for wireless network option and hit enter, and wow! wouldn't you
know it? to my surprise, after about five to ten seconds of silence, the bn
said,
"list of available configurations." I didn't hit enter on any of them at that
point, because I wasn't sure if I'd be able to log offor not, which brings me
to my questions:
1. Just for future reference, how can I tell that I'm connected to a network?
2. Once connected, how do I log off the network? The user's guide said how to
get connected, but it didn't mention how to log off.
3. Eventhough I don't have a router, can I still use the wireless networks I
connect to? and if so, what can I use them for?
4. For those of you, who have had the experience of using a wireless network
already, just like with an isp, does it cost anything to use a wireless
network?
