Sandy, When you switch from USB to wireless you may need to uninstall and
then reinstall. With my wireless Canon selecting USB *OR* Wireless is set
during installation. It may also be possible to install wireless as a
second printer so you have the USB option available if you need.
Rose, How did the transition from a Windows device to an Android device go
for you? I've been seriously looking at the Acer Iconia W500 because it is
a Win 7 device and comes with a keyboard/docking station that turns it into
a notebook. One really nice thing about the Thrive is the battery is the
batter can be removed and replaced by the end user. Other tablets have to
be sent in to the manufacturer or other service center to get the battery
replaced.

Rose, I have been thinking about you and wondering if you were o.k.! Sure
glad to see you back and hope your health is perfect.
I am going to keep your post about the router and the Tablet as I have a
suspicion I may be getting an I-Pad (or something similar) for Christmas.
And I just purchased a router a few months ago when I changed ISP's. I have
lots to learn about how that works. Got a new Epson Printer 4 in 1 that is
wireless compatible but I have not set it up yet. Still connected with a
USB Port.
Stay tuned-----as I am sure I will have lots of questions after the first of
the year.
Sandi
