Connecting to wireless networks
Question : My Windows XP notebook computer won't connect
automatically to wireless networks that are within range. Why is this?
Answer : If the wireless network is "secured," you'll need a
passkey, or password, to access it. Make sure you have a passkey, and
double-click the wireless access icon in your Windows taskbar.
You should see a list of wireless networks available. Click the one for which
you have a passkey, and then click the Connect button.
You should be prompted for the key. You will need to type it twice for
verification purposes. Once you click OK, you should connect within a few
seconds.
Windows remembers the wireless networks to which you've connected. The next time
you're in range of a network that you have used previously, your notebook should
connect automatically.
