I wonder if someone could help me with one.
I recently bought an Acer Notebook mainly for the purpose of using away from home. The features I went for were ALL the Internet cinnection options. Fast LAN, usb (GPRS), modem & wi-fi. I have successfully got things working through my adsl router, so all the updates and spyware programmes are now up to date.
The next thing I was trying to do is connect upto the Wireless Network I also have. 'Linksys Wireless - G Access Point'. I have gone through the 'Network Connections', properties, Wireless Networks, but am not sure what I'm doing here realy. Preferred Networks: lonksys (Automatic) > Properties> and here I have SSID, Authentication etc.It also talks about Smart Cards and Certificates, Data encryption etc. Now firstly, I would like to be able to connect to my own Wireless Connection and once I get that working was wondering what settings I would require to be able to pick up any random Wireless Network that maybe close by that is not encryped.
Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks
