Folks, the easiest way to connect to a network is to make sure you have wireless/ethernet connections set to connect to all networks. Then, scan for wireless networks, and press enter on the network you want. It will take you right in to the setup. A lot of people use automatic ip so this should be your first try. Your problem at school might be that they will require you to provide your MAC address. This is a number printed on your ethernet card. Good luck
