Hmmm, I wouldn't know what to use to configure the ABS from the PC (and I'm
not even sure I would like to try it in fear of rendering my ABS useless!).
There are no MAC restrictions. I can see my network in the Dell TrueMobile
utility as long as I leave it open.
Besides the TCP/IP settings in the network connection for the wireless card,
is there anything else I might be missing? Ed?

The reference is to Bill Gates; Microsoft is widely considered among the worst if not the worst of the perpetrators of bloat. -- This is the NewtonTalk list - http://www.newtontalk.net/ for all inquiries List FAQ/Etiquette/Terms: http://www.newtontalk.net/faq.html Official Newton FAQ: http://www.chuma.org/newton/faq/
