** Description changed:

  Rev. 788
  Ch. 3, § "Getting online", p. 41 (PDF p. 43)
  Type: grammar
  
  Manual has:
  In order to connect to wireless connection, you must have a working wireless 
network.
  
  Ignoring the lack of article (a wireless connection) or plural (wireless 
connections), this is incorrect as "wireless connection" is being used to 
describe a wireless network, which makes the sentence a statement of the 
obvious:
  In order to connect to a wireless network, you must have a working wireless 
network.
  
  Suggestion, incorporating rewrites of following sentences:
- In order to connect wirelessly, you must be in a location with a working 
wireless network. To create your own, you will need to buy and install a 
wireless router or access point, although some locations already have a 
publicly-accessible wireless network established.
+ In order to connect wirelessly, you must be in a location with a working 
wireless network. To create your own, you will need to buy and install a 
wireless router or access point, but some locations already have a publicly 
accessible wireless network established.
