I don't know if this News group is where to get help with a problems I

I bought a used laptop with WiFi using Windows Vista.
I have a wireless Internet Dish outside which connects to my computer
via a cable.
I bought and set up a NetGear 600 Router in my house - connected to the
ISP Cable.
It is working.  This Desktop is connected to the Router right now via a
cable.
When I try to set up a WiFi connection on the Laptop, VISTA says I am
connected with a strong signal.

However, when I start up SeaMonkey, it won't connect to the Internet.
I had set up and used SM - with the cable connected directly to the
Laptop - and got
onto the Internet.  Now via the WiFi, I cannot connect.

Am I doing something wrong here ?How do I get the WiFi signal the
Laptop is getting
to interface with SeaMonkey and then the ISP ?

I have NEVER used WiFi and don't know squat about it.  Especially the
Jargon.  Dinosaur.

DoctorBill



My router (NetGear 600) setup "Wizard" asks if I need a password to get on my 
ISP.
I chose "No" - however my E-Mail does need a password.

What is this Internet IP Address thing ?   How would I get it ?
NetGear's wizard has - "use Static Address (number given) or Dynamic. Chose 
dynamic. ???

Anyway...I went back to the NetGear wizard and had it set up what is needed and 
tested it.
It says I have an internet connectionobviously - I am using it now on my 
Desktop WIRED to
the router.

Now to go back and try the Hp G60 Laptop's WiFi


There are so many possibilities of wifi things not being set right...
No ip address - set your router to auto dhcp or dynamic.
wrong security type - use wpa2
firewall exclusion - turn off the computer fire wall for a few min to test.
etc.

Good info from Arnie.
Have you set up the router's wireless network using a cable yet?
If not then you must do so.
Your router will self SSID the network if you set it up correctly...
probably something like NG600, etc.
Once that is done and saved then reboot both the router and computer
then
try connecting.

To narrow it down I would try other programs besides SM.
Your laptop probably has 20-100 programs that connect to the internet.
Try several of those and let us know the results.


OK.
I tried Internet Explorer.  It was set to work offline.  I set it to 
Online.  No connection.

Went to Internet Options | Connections | Set Up Internet Connection.
Had two WAN Miniport Connections - went to Creat New Connection. 
Clicked "Wireless"

My 2.4 GHz connection came up says connected.
BUT - SM nor IE will connect.
Opened Network and Sharing Center i says I am connected to Router.
Pictorial hasMy Computer ---line---Unidentified Network 
X-Internet

"View Full Map" > says I have an Incompatible Router !

At this point I am stumped.
I can get the Internet when wired (ethernet cable) to the Router (what I 
am doing NOW),

but my Laptop won't connect via WiFi even when receiving strong signal.

Looked into connection Atheros AR5007WiFi adapter...says working properly.
Driver up to date- visited their website.   I got to "Network Connection 
Details" - gibberish to me.

I tried connecting via something on Internet Options and Got this:
Error 815:   Blah blahmaybe bad "Service Name"     lost at 
this point.


Does any of this make sense ?

Eventually I may go PAY to have someone finger this out, but for now 
TRYING to do it myself.

It helps, but gives no solution. So when I toggle the layout to one of

Probably because you have your News account to only show "Unread"
messages. With the news group selected, check View->Threads and set it
to "Threads with Unread" or some such.


The OP could do both:
View | Messages | Unread
AND
View | Threads | Threads with Unread

To maximize message visibility, he'll have to choose
View | Messages | All
AND
View | Threads | All
Then no messages will be excluded.


Yeap, you're right, Paul. For my e-mail account, I do have the "All"'s
selected. and, for the news groups accounts, I like to see things
threaded, so have "Threads with Unread" selected. ;-)


For threading, you want
View | Sort by | Threaded

Like you, I have also chosen "Threads with Unread" because I don't want 
to clutter up my list with old threads and messages I've already seen. 
But that's a separate option from whether messages are threaded or not.

What happens when you mouse over the boundary? Doesn't the cursor
change to a two-headed arrow?


Right, the cursor does NOT change and I can't change the size of the
message pane back.

again?

Probably because you have your News account to only show "Unread"
messages. With the news group selected, check View->Threads and set it
to "Threads with Unread" or some such.


The OP could do both:
View | Messages | Unread
AND
View | Threads | Threads with Unread

To maximize message visibility, he'll have to choose
View | Messages | All
AND
View | Threads | All
Then no messages will be excluded.

Yeap, you're right, Paul. For my e-mail account, I do have the "All"'s 
selected. and, for the news groups accounts, I like to see things 
threaded, so have "Threads with Unread" selected. ;-)

I checked the newsgroups I want to search for off-line searches.


I guess you mean you went to File->Offline->Settings and, in the 
"Message Synchronizing" section, you clicked on "Select newsgroups for 
offline use", selected the Server and then those groups on that server 
which you wanted to download onto your Hard Drive.



Nothing seemed to happen.


Did you then click on File->Offline->Download/Sync Now??


I went to search in the Body of the messages of one of the checked
newsgroups and it said not found.

WHY ???


If you have not downloaded the news group posts onto your Hard Drive, as 
I remember, you can only search the Subject:'s



What else do I have to do ?


See above.


The posts bodies are visible on Seamonkey.  Is that not enough ?


No. See above!

I need to find something that was posted several weeks ago and is ONLY
found in the Body (not the subject).


Then you will have to download that news group onto your Hard Drive, as 
described above.
