PSP is B

Make sure your router is accepting both G and B.

meh-- when you finally get it working make sure to keep WEP off-- just use the MAC addresses to keep stuff secure it makes life so much easier.

For about a week I thought I was piggybacking off my neighbors connection, I was actually on my own, it reset itself after a thunderstorm and the power went out, it reverted back to the factory name

lol

Wouldn't both access points show up on the wireless list? I'm pretty sure I'm on theres.

My laptop is supposed to run as either a G or B.

Is there some setting on the laptop that lets you switch between B and G? Or do both work at once?

Turned out to be the router. I took the B back and got a Wireless G router. Internet works now, but only on either the WPA setting or if I use the MAC address setup.
