Did you setup the router correctly, many ISPs have different settings that routers need to be configured with generally speaking if the router is all setup and you know the password or the network is left open you should be able to connect and then known networks are automatically reconnected after that. By the way what wireless card or airport or usb adapter are you using. This may make a difference in determining if the computer's wireless is set correctly. On Oct 20, 2008, at 10:51 PM, Cy wrote:
