| It sure would nice to be wireless. maybe someone can help  | | | | I'm going to try to make this short as possible, but can't promise anything. lol. A friend of ours came into the house. He showed me this new computer he got. My computer is connected to the internet by USB. When he asked can you hook it up so I can show you how it works, it didn't work. But when I un hooked it, it worked. I have a linksys wireless router. This computer I'm using now, never have been able to get it wireless, even with wireless adapters. I have windows 2000. I have IBM A20m laptop. I bought this used at a computer repair shop. When going onto reviews on this computers and stats it says it does have an internal wireless card. I went into his internet options and his connections said wireless connection. I wentn into mine, which is local area connection. I hit make new connection. It started it configuring new coneection. I hit cancel immiedietly, afraid I may not have any connection at all. This friend does have windows XP. But if that's it, then that would mean you ncan't have wireless with windows 2000. And that doesn't make any sense. Does it? If someone knows, it would be great. | | | | | | | | | | Local Electronic Stores Find Local Electronics Stores& Get yellowpages.com

| | Windows 200 is certainly capable of wireless internet support, so your problem is not insurmountable. I could not solve the issue for you right away because there are many reasons why your wireless internet is not connecting and I would only be guessing. First of all I suggest that you check the Device Manager to see if the drivers are installed for your wireless card, if not then visit the manufacturer's website to download them. Trying to create a new connection is the right thing to do and providing that your router is configured properly should work. Do not worry about destroying your current connection because this should not be affected, and you could always run System Restore to undo anything afterwards. | | | | | | | | | | Local Electronic Stores Find Local Electronics Stores & Get yellowpages.com | add comment | | | |

| | do you know the ip address that goes to your wireless router? Do you have the paperwork that goes with your hardware? If so, there is a phone number you can call and get the help you need for the wireless. If it is the internet access, contact your provider and see if they can help you. | | | | | | | | | | Online Education Choose From Top Computer Science/IT Schools.
