I am using MN-500 (on a DSL connection)which is working
just fine at present with all my wired computers. However
I just reformatted my laptop and can not get it to
connect wireless. (worked great before)
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

If you are on Windows XP, go into Control Panel/Administrative
Tools/Services and make sure Wireless Zero Configuration is turned on and
running. Then open Network Connections and Create a new connection.

You should make sure your laptop is part of the same Workgroup as the rest
of your LAN. This can be accomplished by right-clicking My Computer,
selecting Properties and then going to the Computer Name tab. You will see
Workgroup: displayed with whatever is presently assigned. If it is
incorrect, use the Change button and you'll see the listing for Workgroup at
the bottom.
