Hi all,
Ironically since SP2 was added my Wifi connection has improved tremendously.
Admittedly I am not using a router but the adhoc system with two wifi cards,
but before SP2 I often had to fiddle around with the settings on both
machines in order to get a connection now, 90% of the time it connects
straight away.
With regards to Paul's comment about not being able to adjust the settings,
if you go down to the bottom of the security center page. these is a line
'manage security settings', double click on windows firewall and all the
advanced settings come up. Hope that helps.
Regards
Malcolm Case-Green
