| 584505 | 2007-08-27 00:52:00 | found it very easy (following instructions) to do this, and even have it set up to allow only certain MAC addresses (of my laptop for instance). This is what I attempted. I know how to get my MAC address but when I enter it into the online configuration utility I must be entering it wrong and it won't read it because I can't access the wireless network myself. |

| 584506 | 2007-08-27 01:20:00 | Well it looks like I'm getting it sorted, I now have a WEP enabled connection, a Mac address connection only to my laptop, and a network key entry. I will continue to explore and thank everyone for their help in getting this working for me. Its been quite an experience. | Danger (287) | ||
| 584507 | 2007-08-27 01:41:00 | If your computer(s) hardware is new enough, use WPA instead of WEP. It is far more secure. | Sherman (9181) | ||
| 584508 | 2007-08-27 01:45:00 | Yeah just done that thanks Sherman. Not sure what happens when the key expires in 3600 seconds. Will find out I guess. Getting the hang of it. | Danger (287) | ||
