Hurrah !!! I have my wireless lan working.. My pc is set up and connects fine... Great in fact!

Cannot get Netbook to connect though netstat shows a connection to my ssid all a.o.k.

A strange mac address is showing though... 44.44.44.44 ??? Is this second MAC for the router ?

Any ideas ???

thanks

Excellent Ste,
Glad you cracked it.
As for the 44.44.44 .... Search me - at least it wasn't 66.66.66.66... etc!:confused:

Happy Surfing/ FTPing.
The Buffalo cards are superb for the Netbook. They operate at the correct speed, inlike a Belkin card I tried once (which has been relegated to the kid's PC!).
George;)

Now you have WiFi you can have a more accurate Alarm Clock:

Personally I like the ability of the Psions to wake you up with your own words recorded. In the past I've tried all sorts and ended up ignoring my voice. I tried sampling sexy women's voices formt he net but that just made me stay in bed longer.
The worst 'Alarm' was one I got that played the Windows StartUp Fanfare - not the best thing to start a day with.
