I've turned off WEP temporarily so as not to make that the issue and it
still can't see the AP. The 22Mbit mode is also turned off. I found out
that was bad in Windows when I couldn't get more than 25 ft from my AP w/o
the signal dying. Turned it off and boom...instant access throughout my
house. :-D
Right now though I've got everything to the defaults. Nothing special,
channel 6, default SSID, no wep, no special features enabled...I'm an open
lunch to a war driver. LOL
