Wireless Problem

[Angel_Faerie]

I'm trying to use a wireless network to run my wireless IM thing called a Zipit. It found some networks, but they all have WEP codes I don't know. Help, please? I want to start using this thing.

So you're trying to piggyback off other people's wireless networks?

I don't know. I just wanna be able to use this thing. I have no clue what I'm doing.

It sounds like you're trying to use other people's wi-fi, which isn't just unethical, it's downright illegal. You should hit up a computer store and ask them to walk you through setting up a wireless network at home, I'm sure you'll find someone willing to do it.

Or find some free public wi-fi spots.

Thanks for your help. I had no idea what I was trying to do was wrong. I was just really confused.

Don't worry about it, wireless networks can be tricky, especially if you aren't very tech-savvy.
