Well as i said before the wireless that i was successfully on was from my
house. Now i'm back at college after break, and we have internet here that i
have always been able to access before through my school's username and
password. i can't even get to that page that asks for my username and
password. when i open up Internet Explorer on my Toshiba running Windows
Vista, the IE can't "display the webpage". Any other advice anyone? Thank you
