      From: Daniel47@teranews.com              Dual Boot MD 2009 & Win7 on a HP 6730B laptop              Normally, I connect to internet via a USB Dongle Wireless to local       Telecom provider. I was thinking of d/l'ing updated Mandriva/Mageina       Linux distributions, but my normal account is only 3GB/month, so that       was not going to fly!!              However, this week-end, I will be spending a lot of time with one of my       sisters working on Family Tree files whilst at another sister's place,       so have the opportunity to connect into the sister's wireless network       which then goes via cable to her ISP.              In Win7, I selected the appropriate wireless network, entered an eight       digit number and away I went.              In MD2009, I went into MCC, selected "Network & Internet", then "Network       Center" then "Wireless (Wi-Fi" but the screen is empty, i.e. no network       to select, even after a "Refresh".              What should I do, so that I can connect to my sister's wireless network???              (I'm spending time there next week-end as well (and further into the       future), so even if I do not get things working this week-end, there's       always next week-end!!)              TIA              Daniel              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
