Hi Bill Kearney,
Thank you for your advice. When I left on this trip two weeks ago,
that's when I should have thought of it. As it was, I had to buy a
whole bunch of British-style three square prong adapters to fit the
American-style two-blade plug of my computer.

At the moment, I'm in a strange city (Singapore) and I don't have a
clue what is where as I just arrived today. In two days, I'll fly to
the Philippines and then to Beijing so I'm trying to travel ligthly.

Next time I might pick up the router in the states as far too many
hotels have wired but not wireless Interner connections in the rooms
(and wireless is so very nice when you're relaxing in bed).

Thanks for your advice. At the moment, I'm stuck trying to get the
second computer to connect to the first via the wireless. I already
tried the MAC address change and that worked, but, it's wired and I
prefer to be wireless by far.

But, for want of a setting or two I would be wireless,
Cindy
