[olpc-community-support] Can't see our wifi in neighborhood view

Try checking your wireless access point to see if you are broadcasting your
SSID. My guess is that your wireless access point is configured not to
broadcast and that is why you can't see it. If that is the case you probably
manually typed in the SSID into your windows machine when you set up
wireless networking.

arrive. :)
