My desktop computer fried the other morning when I hit the power switch instead of the modem switch so I borrowed a netbook from a friend%2C which works great from home with the wired connection to my DSL service. %0D%0A%0D%0AI was able to use hospital-provided wireless briefly yesterday and then it just kind of disconnected. This morning I wasn%27t able to use it at all. It%27s one of those sites where you have to accept their terms before it allows you in. That page came up just the one time and worked ok and now it doesn%27t at all. I ran a diagnotic thing and it says I%27m connected but that I don%27t have internet access.%0D%0A%0D%0AAny ideas on what I%27m doing wrong%3F It%27s an HP netbook running windows 7%2C something I have not used before.%0D%0A%0D%0AThanks very much%2C%0D%0Amoon 1|1|RE%3A Using a public wireless connection|dabo||13:43:47|04/01/2011|The internet access message could indicate a problem with Messenger%2C possibly just temporary. Find an unsecure network%2C see how that works. Or find out who maintains the secure network to find out from them if you can be added as a user. They may be blocking you just because they can.%0D%0A 2|2|It%27s working again|moonbaby||20:54:39|04/01/2011|I changed it from connecting automatically to manually. I don%27t know if that helped or it%27s just hinkey.%0D%0A%0D%0AThanks%21%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A 3|3|RE%3A It%27s working again|Snidget||21:55:28|04/03/2011|Perhaps this was the problem. %3A%29%0D%0A%0D%0Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.realitytvworld.com%2Fboards%2FUser_files%2F4d99250928709fa0.jpg
