Agreed ! I spent way too much time screwing with that. I never did find any additional
software for the wireless - just the Windows network set up.
The frustrating thing was that the XP networking utility saw my open network at full power
and a neighbors very weak (one bar) secured network,
When we "tried" to access the neighbors secured network it came up with a dialog box
telling us it was a locked network and asked for a key #
When we tried to access my open network it went through the motions (green advancing bar)
that went on for about two minutes and then stopped. No indication of success (none)
and no dialog about a failure to connect.
We had a lot of other stuff to set up so I plugged it it to the Enet and it was recognized immediately -
dare I say almost mac like
I guess we will look at that next time.
Thanks again for all the help
