I think we need to beware of making any one page too big and unwieldy -
although the opposite problem of fragmenting into pages with only 5
lines of content is just as bad!

My suggestion would be to

(1) split MrC's piece on Wireless Security (currently in
BeginnersGuideToNetworks) off into a page on its own, replaced by a 
single sentence and a link.  Say "WirelessSecurity"

(2) have another new page, say "WirelessTroubleshooting" with the
thoughts that are beginning to accumulate in this thread. Also linked
in from the BGToNetworks, cross-referencing with the WirelessSecurity
page

As far as the troubleshooting page goes, I think the logical flow is to
point out that the SB has to

(a) find a signal

(b) connect to the network

(c) connect to slimserver

[these are the same 3 points identified in the thread so far, but in a
different order].  Then we can hang all of the tips and troubleshooting
onto this structure.

I'm ok to move MrC's stuff out into another page and tidy up the main
BGToNetworks - if that's ok with everyone.  I might try to get a
picture in now we've been shown how to do that.

It might also make sense to take advantage of the space by pulling the
firewall stuff in from the main BeginnersGuide page (which is
definitely too big). Note that Street_Samurai is currently looking at
making some other changes to the main BeginnersGuide page, so best to
avoid other changes there just at the moment.

Do we have a volunteer to collate and write up the troubleshooting
page?  Is that you, Danco?

Ceejay.
