[QUOTE="vita64, post: 921268, member: 120135"] *sigh* Okay, I'm feeling like a complete idiot now because I can't find WHERE to turn off and/or change my Airport password. I checked under System Preferences-->Network-->Advanced but only found an option for "Require Administrator password to control Airport" which is unchecked. I also tried the Airport Utility and got this message: "Airport Utility was unable to find any Apple wireless devices. Make sure the Apple wireless device you want to set up is plugged in and in range of your computer, and then click rescan to try again." Yes, it's plugged in and in range. It's how I'm accessing the Internet right now. <unrelated whining>Why, oh why, does the family assume that my years of Macintosh usage make me the best qualified person in the house to set up the PC?</unrelated whining> [/QUOTE]
