The wireless network and your laptop ought to have the same network name -- which you can check for the laptop in /Control Panel / System? System Info. MSHOME is one of the XP Network Wizard's default or suggested names and was eitherr chosen or not chosen by whoever set up the wireless network (thus needing XP Admin privileges on whatever PC he used.) Router settings are something different; the router probably functions in the network as one of its devices. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)

In this context, administrator is somebody with a knowledge. So the experts here are kind of your collective administrator, you've just contacted them :) Congrats. --PA
