Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    The wireless key is like a password you enter on the second computer.

    You will find it in the configuration section of your wireless router. This configuration section is usually accessed via your web browser and has an IP address of 192.16.0.1 or 192.168.1.1. Enter one of these numbers in Internet Explorer where you would normally enter a web address.

    Is the access point using WPA PSK..?.
    If your Eircom your gateway ip will be 192.168.1.254
    a lot of the others are 192.168.1.1

    Also check that your not on service pack one as it wont talk to a wpa access point only with wep so you wont be ble to input the code even if you have the right one.. or reduce the security to wep

    The wireless key is whatever you set it up to be. If you can't remember, create a new one, and set it up on your router/access point, and on the two computers (the old one and the new one).

    If you post the make and model of the hardware involved, someone will post more specific advice.
