Configuring a wireless network. Gahh! Thud.

brings back the painful memories of mcafee toying with me

The strange address isn't a strange address at all, it is simply the default DHCP address assigned when the PC can't contact a DHCP server.

DHCP is working for the WLAN adapter on the laptop, but only when the adapter decides it can see a wireless network.

Sweet well it wasn't clear from your posts if you could connect and not get assigned or not connect at all, meh why bother asking if you don't anyones input.

I wasn't asking.

Gooood, good.
I was just about to post and say how boring this thread was getting and how you needed to start a fistfight or summat.
But that'll do for a start.

If you'n'TheHitch got really pissed and then really pissed off and staRTED (fkn caps key) defenestrating computer gear, that would be good too.
Just take lotsa foterz.....

You should read the thread then, because as I KEEP SAYING...

I wasn't asking.

Well you seem to be struggling...

[James Deuce]

Not at all. I was pointing out that there is a fault fixing process to go through and I am still going through it. It is a process. Some people seem to think that every idea that rushes into their head is exactly the right one and all things IT should be fixed instantaneously because it's the computer age.

I will sort it and Mr & Mrs Hitcher won't need to spend money on a new router either.

I knew from your first post that this would be a thread to watch.

Not calm. Not Calm. NOT CALM.

Happy place.

soooo, what you're really trying to say is, you have no idea, and you're trying every idea you can think of, one after another?

Would you like some help?
