Appreciate the reply. Your setup does not work here, at the moment. I
think I can adjust so that it will......

I pulled the old Toshiba notebook which has eCS 1.01. Installed the ARtem
driver. I then enabled wireless access for my home network by changing the
subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 & correcting my TCP/IP parameters on the
Toshiba notebook. So my hardware works, I just need to fine tune. I
think the main reason why I can not use a setup similar to yours, is that
I initially configured the wireless router via the wireless router's
wizard and then mad some manual changes. I probably will have to reset
the wireless router to its defaults then manually configure the router.
Should have time to do this next month........ Thanks again.

I also need to do some more reading on subnet masks via Google.
