Some other stuff

Yeah, I didn't want to fool with the channels either but it's not so bad. At least, the rest of my other wireless computers (my laptop and my bro's) weren't affected by the change.

The cycling wireless on/off helps. But thing that I found the most helpful, in terms of turning things off/on, is on the wireless profiles. If you can't seem to connect, check out the wireless profiles. Underneath the box that shows what networks are available, there is an option. I think it's connect to non-preferred networks, or something like that. If you click that on or off, depending on what it was set on before, you should be able to connect. I did this 'cause I didn't like the identy of physically turning the antena off and on. But whatever works is cool.

Also, I when I was talking with Dell support, they told me that their Axims have been having problems with DLink wireless routers specifically. That's too bad. Apart from this connection problem with my Axim, my Dlink 614+ has served me pretty well. However, it does disconnect from time to time. This is why I started another thread asking what routers people recommend.

Anyways good luck,
