Good thought. David you could just go to the admin page on your router and
go to wireless MAC filter. There you can call up a list of clients currently
connected to the router. Make sure your IPAQ is in there. Myipconfig will
show you your IPAQ's MAC address.

Probably a silly question, but have you changed the wireless network name to
something unique??

Can you at least connect to the router from your IPAQ ?? ie can you get at
the router's admin page using PIE ?? (the admin page doesn't fully work
with PIE but you can at least call it up)

No probs here with 4150 and Linksys WRT54G. David's is a different model
with ADSL modem built-in. (hadn't heard of this model before)
