think i solved the problem. i changed the channel and seems to work now. i tihnk there were just too many people in my apartment block using the same (default) channel causing too much interference.

yeah, thats the way its setup. is there a way to block all other networks? also, sometimes it will bring up a message saying wireless netwwork available so i click connect... nothing happens for a while and then it just says wireless network available again maybe my router is messed up

Hi, I've got an Acer Travelmate 803LMi and a Netgear 54Mbps wireless router. for the most part its been ok but recently its been getting quite buggy. Whenever it detects another wireless network it gets all confused and refuses to connect to my router or if it does it disconnects frequently...

Well, Robert Reich never been overly concerned with deficit spending so i'm not entirely surprised at what he said. He does have a point.. the whole Social security surplus issue is all politics. But, Washington is all about perception, spin and politics... I can just see the Democrats now...

Depends. Builds character for some, but I know a few people who just constantly whine about how everything is unfair and their life sucks... I guess some people just never learn.

Ah, so nice to see that so many of you are willing to sacrifice your lives for the good of the country. After all, I'd do the same... Yes, I'm prepared to sacrifice your lives for the good of the country. But guys, you're missing the point. As Patten said, "the point of war is not to die...

ALthough, most Hyundais.. and especially the older ones suck big time, Saturns are just plastic toys.

The stop and go totally sucked, ruined the entire race. What a boring season this is turning out to be. What's with Mclaren? Hakkinen is asleep at the wheel and Coulthard isn't much better... plus the car is so slow Hakkinen got lapped. Williams looks impressive but its hard to say how much...

And some people still don't think we have a national identity! What more do they want?

Well, essentially if everything he created also moved at his speed... then time would be much slower for him and his creations relative to the rest of us. So what he creates in 7 days would seem much longer for us.

One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. It all depends on whose side you're on. ...and the latest news: Rebel terrorists blew up the Death Star again! The Emperor is missing and presumed dead. If anyone has any information regarding the status of the Emperor, please contact...

American melting pot? Thats just a myth. Culture in the US is vastly different for each area. Texas, New York, and California are as different as can be. In fact, I would say a person living in Seattle has more in common in a Vancouverite than with anyone in Arkansas.
