>Is 802.11g backwards compatible with 802.11b? Yes. Unless specifically disabled, pretty much anything g will fall back to b. >Is it likely just a SSID issue? SSID, WEP/WPA, signal strength, antenna orientation, etc. >Do you care about SSID's with wi-fi? In theory, yes. But in practicality, you use it more to pick which WLAN to jump on to more than anything else. >Do I just need to learn to like coffee and hang out at Starbucks instead of trying to work from home? Caribou is better. :) In XP, use either the XP util or manufacturer util to browse available WLANs; try to connect from there. You may just need to create a wireless profile for the home WLAN.
