I installed windows 2000 professional on my toshiba tecra 8000 laptop, and eonder if I need anything else installed for me to be able to access my home wireless network. As of now, it won't.1 person needs an answerI do too

You need: 1. A wireless router. 2. A wireless network adapter on the computer. If the laptop has wireless hardware, you need to get drivers for your chosen operating system from Toshiba. 3. If the wireless network adapter is built-in and the laptop was designed for Win2k, it is probably too old to do good wireless encryption (WPA/WPA2). In that case you'd be better off buying a USB wireless network adapter so you can use WPA2-Personal for your wireless encryption level.MS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
