I thought this was all meant to be easy? I'm starting to look at CAT V cables and think "mmmm... cables... CABLES!".

I bought myself a wireless hub access point ADSL modem three in one thing (D-Link 604+) yesterday together with a Belkin wireless NIC.

All installed ok, no apparent problems or warnings. I thought I'd start out easy and engaged the wireless access point to work with no WEP and no MAC authorisation (anyone can get in).

The wireless card can see the hub (it's listed in the utility that came with the card), tells me I have a terrific signal (well it's a foot from the access point) but Windows XP tells me there's "no available network".

What gives? I know I'm doing something stupid, but it makes no sense to me.

Thanks,

TJ
