Re: Halle-flippin-lulah!!!!
Thanks all. Impressed with myself.
My router was the original, after the dial up modem, when I progressed to broadband. (I think the one they gave me was too titchy and nothing to it.)
It has been playing up for so long now, I kept having to reboot it, and the iPad, and it was hit and miss if it worked, in recent weeks.
I'll see to a few things on the web first, like checking my emails, then I'll take the cable out of the laptop, and see why it can't connect wirelessly. There are so many boxes to fill out for connecting things, I can see how it can confuse some people. I thought first of all I'd have a problem with the iPad but I got there.
One less thing for me to worry about now, and I'm only £67.99 lighter, for a dual band model.
