Re: [A/S] A question



It should work without an antenna.  There are a few reasons why it may not 
work.....

The first that comes to mind is the campground wifi may not be free.  I'm pay 
6.95 a day here for wifi. )c:  I have to go to IE and put in my secret code 
to get online.  For some reason I go to cnn.com and the sign in page comes up 
and first I have to sign up and pay from there, from then on I have to put in 
my secret codes the company gives me to get online. Once I'm logged in.... I'm 
online.

If the signal is free.....

When you are getting a wireless signal there are two little computer monitors 
on your task bar, near the date.  Put the cursor on them and it'll show if 
you are getting a signal.  If not you may need to "enable" the wifi in Network 
Connections.  If you are getting a signal then *right* click on the little 
monitors and click on "View Avaialable Network Connections" You'll see a name, or 
names of the connections available. Highlight one and click the "Allow me to 
connect" square and then the Connect button.  If it needs a secret code it'll 
have a space for you to type it in.

If I were you I'd ask at the office....or maybe the check the newsgroup 
alt.internet.wireless.  

If I had your computer, in a wifi campground, I could make it work, but I 
don't know enough about the thing to tell you from here. 

Sorry I'm not more help.
