It HAS to be connected for you to       use it as a router.        Dunno why you have an IP address with an extra digit added. It       should show your present IP address.               Do a:        ipconfig /all        At the command line to see your actual IP address. MAC address       should match too... and computer name.               If they don't match, you have an unwanted guest. Change the       router's password to something stronger. Whoever complains is the       culprit. The wife? A son?        LOL        []'s              >       >Every time I delete the network from my Network Watcher, it reappears       >in a few seconds.
