dear Barbara I had no sooner read your posting when I lost the connections on both my laptop and Desktop. I Do turn off at night as weatherwise we do have some sudden storms. However "Newly Fangled one, I rather think that error message will be come familiar. I know it by heart. Bet it the one ending in D you know cannot find Server. if you have 2 laptops can you tell me then this Box, is your desktop wired in and the laptops via the Wireless. Also on you laptops you have a card at the side of the laptop. I was not knowledgeable and I should have especially as this Toshiba was very expensive at a local shop shouldhave made sure the Option was for the connection to be internal one. I find this card sticking out at the side has little lights on it flickering. I imagine if you have a desktop and a couple of Notepads then some-one in the house can see? I find myself peering at a black box with Ariel's sticking up and hoping little lights are on. What is your Belkins box like to feel? does it have three wires at the back 2 thin and one thick. Mine is an Eddimax and I cannot say it is reliable, but if my turning it off is the cause best to know. Good luck Newly Fangled Babs.Dorothy ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
