Joananne, Can you search for the network using the laptop? I.e, when you search is a network shown in the list? If not,, wireless may be disabled. If it is found, does Vista give any errors when it fails to connect? Is there any security required? i.e, wep, WPA, cert based? Sorry for all the questions. Hopefully something will ead us to an idea as to what's wrong. =========================================================== The vicsireland mailing list To unsubscribe at any time send a mail to: vicsireland-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe", without the quotes in the subject of the message.
