Sorry I'm a little rusty /stupid.
The last time I used eCS was before I went wireless and as far as I can remember the version of eCS I have (1.1 I think) didn't recognise the wireless card on my ThinkPad x31.
Yep so it's nothing to do with the router...I asked the wrong question.
What I really need to know is how can I set up eCS to recognise the wireless card on my thinkPad
....and from where can I get an up to date browser? The one I have.... Mozilla... is very old and flash etc doesn't work...
Cheers

Hi Mark,
I see from your message headers :
"X-Mailer: YahooMailRC/324.3 YahooMailWebService/0.8.100.260964"
that (until your following *success* message) you _were_ using Yahoo WebMail for your e-mail!
Noting on that later message the following:
"User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; U; Warp 4.5; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040617"
I can see that you you're now using (the supplied with original eCS 1.2) Mozilla 1.7 - which is very old (2004-06-17!), so I'd suggest that you _*immediately*_ download the same one I'm using - [a now superseded but super stable - which didn't even have any security issues (only _*Windows*_ editions of course!) at the time when _*every*_ other release - *including later ones* in the V2.x releases did!] from here:
[http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/releases/1.1.18/contrib/seamonkey-1.1.18.en-US.os2.installer.exe] **
** That was the _*FINAL release of SeaMonkey version 1.1.**_ - development then went to SeaMonkey 2.0.x
(which I'm not impressed with!)
Before installing SeaMonkey 1.1.18 I'd suggest that if you don't already have it installed that you obtain the *libc-0_6_3-csd3.wpi* from [ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/libc-0_6_3-csd3.wpi] as I think it requires that as a prerequisite!
You can check whether you already have it installed by running "dir <bootdrive>:\os2\libc*.dll /s" and comparing the output to what's below (specifically libc063.dll - the big one!) and have that particular file - date/time may be slightly different because of your timezone!
[D:\Desktop]dir d:\os2\libc*.dll /s
The volume label in drive D is ECSV20B4-D.
The Volume Serial Number is 6FD4:45C2.

_*Do it now*_ (it's a 14.8MB download) _*AFTER ensuring the libc063.dll file is installed*_ on your system!
Just run the SeaMonkey executable, and it will (or should!) automatically import all of the settings/data currently in the mozilla 1.7 you have running. Choose a _*different location to install it to*_ - e.g. if Mozilla 1.7 is in :
<bootdrive>:\Programs\mozilla.org\mozilla
(or something similar) - install it to e.g.
<bootdrive>:\Programs\Seamonkey1118, or <bootdrive>:\Seamonkey1118.
You can always drag the installed folder to any preferred location on your system - e.g. to your Programs *volume* - after installation!
That way as soon as you have run it - and verified it has imported all your mail accounts/browser settings etc., from mozilla 1.7, you can then drag the original (mozilla 1.7) *_HDD folder_* to the Trashcan or the Shredder.
Check that just _*that folder*_ is in the Trashcan, (i.e. you didn't have something else also currently elected at the time you dragged it!) and then empty the Trashcan!
HTH - Enjoy!as you are only on eCS 1.1 there *may8 be some other prerequisites.
