I'm afraid this is completely off-topic, but I'm running out of ideas.
Not had a response from alt.internet.wireless. I recently bought an Acer Notebook to use when I'm working away and on holiday. One of the main considerations was to have a number of Internet connecting options, eg: LAN, 56k modem, blue-tooth, wi-fi. 1. I have successfully added it to my adsl router port 4 and been able to do all the windows updates etc and surfed the net etc. 2. My second option is wi-fi. Now I've tried to connect to my Linksys Wireless-G Access Point and all appeared fine at first ,saying excellent connection 54.0Bps. Yet I am not recieving anything through it, no web sites. I tried turning the firewall off, which made no difference. I currently have it unencrypted. My daughter laptop works fine with it, she does have a Linksys PCAI.. card fitted. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong, or what I may have overlooked. My final option, which I haven't got all the bits for yet, is GPRS through a mobile phone, I'll tackle that obstical when I've got over this one g Many thanks -- Keith (Southend) 'Weather Home & Abroad' http://www.southendweather.net |
