[olpc-help] Connecting to internet

[Anonymous]

My ActionTec router is also on Channel 9. I can see my access point on XO's home page, but cannot even type a query when I open up the browser. Clicking on links takes me nowhere also. I'm willing to try changing to Channel 6, but I haven't got a clue how to do it. Are the directions something that can be typed easily or would it be a labor-intensive reply? I'd appreciate the help if possible. I love my little XO, but it's pretty limited until I can get online.

Thanks,

Debbie

> Hi.  For what it's worth, a friend of mine had the same problem with an Actiontec router.  His was on channel 9, and I asked him to switch to channel 6.  He had to reboot the router afterward, but it's now working (before, the OLPC wouldn't find the router).  Perhaps try changing channels as well via the router's admin interface (I recommend channels 6 or 11)
