Yes, he tried to get you to do a reboot.  I want you to do a reset, using the 
reset button in the battery compartment door.  Instead of holding down the star 
key with it as you do to reflash, simply press the reset button in by itself 
with a pen or something for about 5 seconds and let go.

  What he tried to get me to do was a "restart" but the key combinations he 
said didn't work.

    Do a reset before you reflash.

      Richard,

      Holding star, pound, and program key to the left of the applications bar 
didn't work. I also tried star and key to the left of the apps bar as well as 
pound and the key to the left of the apps bar and none of these worked.

      Thanks,

        Hi James,

         

        First, just try a re-start by holding down the star and the pound key, 
then when you press down on the Program 1 key, release all three at once.

        The program 1 key is the round key to the left of the application menu.

         

        That will do a re-start then,

        Make sure the Wireless is turned on by using the network manager or the 
program 2 key.

         

        I'm assuming you are broadcasting your router signal.

         

        Are you using any security like WEP or WPA?

        If not, you are open to anyone hopping onto your network and possibly 
gaining access to your computer.

         

        If that doesn't work, try calling APH and seeing if they can walk you 
through anything else that would be helpful.

         

        Best of luck,

        Richard

        Hi all,

         

        My Braille Plus is doing yet more strange things. This time, it's the 
wireless. Right now my wireless is off according to the network manager. 
According to my status menu, however, it says, "Wireless on. Connected to off 
slash any. Signal Strength: fare." When I turn the wireless on, however, it 
says searching for wireless networks, and finds none, even though my computer 
is finding it and getting an excellent signal strength reading. It doesn't even 
find it when I stand right next to the router itself, and Sunday it was working 
just fine even if I was all the way across the house from the router. This 
problem started when I got home yesterday. I have a feeling that yet another 
reflash is in order, but I'm afraid if I do that and it doesn't fix my problem, 
I'm going to be stuck using 1.05, which I really do not want to do.

         

        Thanks for any assistance,
