I have just received my new company laptop and have been trying to connect to my wireless sky connection, the laptop has identified and connected after the userkey has been typed in.

It has connected and installed the latest updates from MS automatically but when I try to use explorer it cannot find server.

I have already loaded the Sky software and set the sky wireless to be the first default connection?

Any ideas?

Many thanks.

Company laptop? That might be your problem there. Check it's IP address - it may be fixed and in a completely different range to your wireless network, in which case you will see square root of zip.

Start, Run, Command - ipconfig /all

Make sure the IP address of your wireless connection is in the range supplied by the DHCP server on your wireless router.
