Hi Merv,
If its of any help, I know the owner of the Cervantes motel and if you
want, I can ask him ?
Cheers

Hi Merv,
I couldn't be sure but perhaps the motel set up the router with the
default settings - what details did the motel give you?
I'd say the belkin54g is probably left open and is offering itself
to your Mac, and your security settings are set to have you confirm
before you join unknown networks.

Gavin, would this mean I would be joining someones private network
or is it an open network? At home if I look at the pull down menu
at the wireless icon I see my own network and one called
Belkin_N1_A1FAEA. Both are locked. I don't remember checking under
the wireless icon for belkin54g but I assume it was not locked.
Strange?

Hi Merv,
Sounds like a Belkin router with the default settings.

While spending a few perfect days in Cervantes I connected to the
net using a USB modem. In fact, I didn't need it as the motel was
a hotspot. However I tried it and a message came up, "Your
trusted networks are not available would you like to connect to
belkin54g"? I didn't like the tone of the message so I said no
and used the motel's network.
Any advice on belkin54g?
Cheers
Merv
