| if it is not asking for pass it is probably mac address filtering. you need to enter your mac address into the router's settings or just reset the router :) |

tried restarting the router and then my laptop. nothing... i have a mac id for my wireless card in my laptop.. but their mac filtering is disabled so i should be able to access their connection immediately anyway... what the hell? |
