does ssid name have to be in both windows?

Having some problem with connection to the wireless network.

WHen you click on the icon in the tray it shows the available, and preferred
networks?
The one is WEP enabled, but doesn't always seem to work, though the password
is correct.
If it shows , does it have to be both int he available and preferred?

Hi

If the Wireless Networks are Not yours, you should avoid trying to connect
to them.



If you own more than one network, the preferred has to be log to and it
would appear in the preferred if you log manually to the second network it
would show in the preferred too. You can remove it from the preferred and
avoid logging to it if you want it to stay out of the preferred.



As for SSID? I do not understand your question; there is one SSID entry for
every Wireless source configuration.

No, just having trouble logging into the wireless, think it may be the card,
it sometimes shows on the bottom part of the window, but not always the top,
it is wep secured,
If it isn't in the top one also, does it mean it is not available?
