bought a secure wireless router to replace my unsecured router. Once I changed routers, I lost the internet connection on my wireless laptop that I had had with the unsecured router. So began a 3 day frustration (whenever it got too bad I got out my scraps and started cutting pieces for a new scrappy top) trying to figure out why my desktop computer had an internet connection but my laptop couldn't access the internet in my network. This morning, as snow gently falls out my window, I once again went through all the contol panel;my network connections, learning all about lan, wlan, ssid, tcp/ip, dhcp, mac addresses, subnet masks, default gateways, ip addresses ad infinitum. After doing waht I swear I'd already done before...voila! So the pat on the back is not for my wizardry, but for my patience and diligence in coming back to the problem, time after time, just so that I could access rctq and read all your posts!
