Don,
I always have a copy of mepis7, puppy 3.1, or Slitaz cooking to run as a
Linux live cd. Running one of these as a live CD, it is easy to connect
to your router, and with a little knowledge & practice to use a wireless
connection... Tis an easy safe solution to confirm a software, and not
hardware problems you have run into..
