Hi Chris - I was given the option to save this network, and connect
automatically; what the problem is, is that the laptop has connected to the
network, but hasn't got access to the internet. It looks like I need to do
something so that the laptop has access to the internet when on the
etwork -

| Hi Andy, although this wireless connection I use here uses WPA-personal,
| another type of encryption, you may want to look in your wireless
| connection's properties, under the security page. You may be able to
| enter the wep key there. I know you can enter this network's
| WPA-personal key there as well, so this is just a stab in the dark.
| Going back to your "connect to" query, when you first connect to the
| network you should have been given options to "save the network",
| "connect to the network automatically", etc. If not, you may again be
| able to set these in the connection's properties. If you want to know
| how to get there in the first place, give us a shout. Hope that helps.
