Re: Wireless DCF-660w card question

i didn't put anything for ESSID - left it on non-specific.  left network 
type on infrastructure.  wep enabled 128 open system set the key to the 
hex (you really should do this - if you leave wep off on your network 
anyone that can get near your network in proximity has complete access - 
and you only need to enter the hex once per device).  also set up tcp/ip 
- under internet wizard, unless you have dhcp.  sometimes i need to go 
into that app and click switch connection just to get it to register, 
but not always.  iff you are configuring, set the router to the router 
of your network, not the ip of the access point (i made this mistake, 
assuming it would act like a router).  and don't forget a dns server or 
you'll be connected but still won't be able to access anything.  the 
green light should be solid, but i think that means it found the access 
point, not that you necessarily can get out to the internet.  

hope that helps,
sander
