I don't think you need to do anything - you said it was fixed. I was just wishing you well, that's all <br />

I'm trying to get my wireless network to function again. I'm in the, &quot;The Wireless Network Setup Wizard&quot;. I think I'm on the second, or third screen. It says:<br />
Your network settings are saved to the flash drive. Now follow these steps:<br />
1. Plug the flash drive into to your wireless access point.<br />
My question: What are they referring to? What is a, &quot;wireless access point&quot;, and where is it?<br />
<br />
Thanks! You folks are awesome!

wireless access point

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
