Hello Kane. I wish things just worked magically <smile>. What you need
to do is create a wireless profile. We have a knowledge base article
which gives you the steps. So you know, you don't need to enable
Bluetooth for WiFi access. So, just press backspace-dots-1-4-5-6 until
you hear wireless on. Then follow the steps in www.gwmicro.com/kb1095
and it should help you the rest of the way.
Many thanks.

Hello again.
Now that I've got my address book fixed, I have a burning question about
wireless connectivity with the BrailleSense Plus.
I've recently set up a wireless network at home, and I know it works,
because I can bring my laptop from the office and can connect to it
without a problem. Not so with the BrailleSense.
I've brought in the new BrailleSense Plus and have made sure in the
options that BlueTooth and wireless are turned on. Yet when I type
SPACE+N to get to network settings, all I get is the statement that
wired LAN is the default, and it is not connected. No obvious way to
"arrow" up or down through a list, to let the BrailleSense know I want
it to connect to my wireless network. Nor does there seem to be any way
for me to alter the IP address, subnet mask, etc., so it can spot the
wireless network. These seem to be just read-only fields.
What am I doing wrong? How can I alter the network settings, not just
look at them? Hitting any key when I've got network settings called up
takes me back to whatever program or menu I'd been in before.
-Kane
