How do I check security for the wireless internet - I guess there is - Laptop 2 found the available networks , there were 2 shown - I chose the Orange one and entered the code ( 26 digits I think) and icon says excellent strength
ASKER
Proxy is unticked
ARE YOU SURE FROM THE 26 DIGITS YOU PUT IN THE SECOND LAPTOP?
ASKER
Hi Engineer Jo - If icon shows excellant signal strength for the Wireless network I must have entered the correct serial number ?
DOES YOUR LAPTOP HAS A BUILT-IN WIRELESS ADAPTER OR EXTERNAL?
ASKER
built in
TRY TO PUT AN EXTERNAL WIRELESS ADAPTER. THEN CONNECT TO THE WIRELESS NETWORK.
