      XPost: phl.internet       From: sisaac.control@netaccess.control.com              Apropos of this, I am a newcomer to laptops and to wireless networks.              I took my new (old) laptop with Win98 and wi-fi card to the       Reading Terminal Market.              Managed to tell the program that monitors the card that it should use SSID       (?) of "pcca". Then it showed a signal strength of about 34% and a signal       quality near 100%.              But when I asked an e-mail program to access pop3.myrealbox.com, or a       telnet program to access unix5.netaxs.com , they protested they couldn't       find a DNS server.              What can be done?              Thanks a lot,                     --       Sheldon Isaac       lose all .control when replying              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
