Re: 2wire wireless modem / not really wireless?????

That is just a general instruction for most people setting up a desktop. You can connect to the 2wire wirelessly no problem.

Fire up your laptop and what ever software you use to configure your wireless card. Look at the networks available. One of them should read like: 2wirexxx where xxx is the last 3 digits of your 2Wire's serial number on the bottom label. Like 2wire385, etc.
Then you need to make sure your card is set to WEP encryption, and the encryption key is the number in the square brackets on the bottom label. Enter that number into the key field of your wireless setup program and that should be all you need to start talking to the 2Wire.
