I have a laptop that at one time I was able to get on the internet with and now I can't. It came with an internal wireless card, but not working. I was talking to someone at tech support at earthlink and they said something about a button being turned off and I have no idea what he is talking about. Do I still have to have a wireless router to link the computer to the laptop? I know I am badly computer illiterate plus I don't unerstand the computer lingo! Thank you for your help.

That shouldn't be too hard to figure out. First off, you need the wireless router setup correctly. When I get home tonight, I will ask some questions to help you figure out the problem.

Thanks Chuck, I really appreciate all of your help. Maybe one day I will understand computers enough to actually start to like them. ![;)](http://www.epilepsysupport.org.uk/imagehost/emoticons/dunno.gif)

If you are online, we can try to configure your wireless. Can you go in the Hot Tub? ;D

Go to the link for the Live Chat Room and Click the "Chat Board" link. Just put in any name and click login. You may need to download an update. If so, follow the directions on the update.

We are going to use both. Bring the laptop near the PC. BTW I added a new avatar just for this computer setup
