OK, I have a home computer and hooked a router up to it, I just recently
bought a laptop. I can connect to other wireless networks from my laptop, BUT
my home connection is not on my list, why is that and how can I get connected
through my home computer instead of outside networks?!  PLEASE HELP ME!

Hi
Assuming that you have a Wireless Router (or Access Point), aka Wireless
source.
Your Wireless source and your Laptop are Not configured similarly.
May be this can Help.

I though I had already said I had posted to the wrong subject and apologised
