Your wifi is most likely password protected so anyone around rhe neighborhood can't connect. so you have to get the wifi to recognize the laptop.

Not really a network person.

But, when I give access to wireless here, I give them whatever is listed for WEP 64-bit.

Does your laptop "see" your home wifi?  If it does, when you try to connect what is the error you are getting?

Jim, I have to confess the error I'm getting is "you're a dummy and putting in the wrong password."  :)
