See: http://wlanbook.com/free-public-wifi-ssid/ Summary: True, it's not there. In your wife's case, the wireless adapter might be off. You wouldn't guess it's off because the phantom "Free Public Wifi" is distracting you. I have observed this symptom in cases when the wireless adapter was disabled (perhaps by a physical toggle switch on the laptop). - TK _______________________________________________ Thinkpad mailing list [email protected] http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad
