I have NTL broadband with 1Mb broadband.

I have connected a Belkin wireless access point and all the LED lights on it are OK. It has been connected direct into the back of the set top box.

I have messed about with my laptop and I think i have searched and found the wireless signal. The SSID is WLAN. I am not 100% sure if its the access point or if its some wireless i have some how set up on my PC!!

Any ideas what I can do.

I have set up a wireless router before. Unfortunately with a wireless access point i cannot plug wire direct into it.

When using netstumbler when it shows the wireless signal its got the padlock symbol. I guess i need to go to the control panel. I assume this should be OK connecting to it using wireless
