Wireless Part 2

I did write up a post on my PSP but the browser typing on there is shit so I essentially wasted 30 minutes typing what I could've written on here in 30 seconds.

So my wireless is working, no thanks to the 'Quick Installation' CD that came with it. Here's how the afternoon went as I was trying to set it up.

1) Connected everything up
2) Installation walkthrough refused to recognise the ethernet cable connecting PC to router
3) Much fiddling with settings later, the CD is still the only thing that doesn't recognise the ethernet connection
4) I give up on the walkthrough and delve into the depths of my brain to find my A+ knowledge
5) Drivers for the access point are installed
6) Try accessing the router control panel
7) Access the router control panel, proceed to change pretty much all the default settings
8) Disconnect normal modem and find to my shock that the internet is actually working
9) Try accessing the router control panel again and fail repeatedly until I notice that I've typed www.192.168.1.1
10) Feel like an idiot for the previous mistake
11) Set a WEP key, quite frankly if anyone guesses this they deserve my internet
12) Change settings on the Wii, DS and finally set up a network connection on my PSP
13) Get frustrated that the only online games I can play are Mario Strikers and Tetris DS
14) Realise that I can now play Mario Strikers online whenever I want, regardless of whether the computer is on or not



15) Watch the frankly brilliant new Maroon 5 video and contemplate buying a laptop
