Right, the laptop has been plugged into the router, found the net and now the router's back in this one.

Poor bunny, he's got stuff to do. One bird's laptop is hardly a concern. He invented IT blokes for that.

He sent me an email yesterday. I'm very excited, I might go wandering to see if I can find him. He'd probably hate me cooing over his name though, bet he gets it all the time. But aww.

Also I should add that neither are technically city names verbatim. In Italy, and I think in some other European countries, instead of surnames being occupations or such they would usually just be Da Vinci or of whatever town they were of.

Mini tip: With XP I found it was best to disable the Ethernet connection in Network Connections when I wanted to use wireless.
It probably won't fix the problem, but it sometimes lets programs know which it should be trying to use.

# My default position on hardware issues is
"Burn a Ubuntu Live CD".
Ubuntu's pretty good with laptops and wireless now, and you can run it without installing anything. If Ubuntu can work it then at least you know the wireless card is functioning properly.
