As Mike said, the problem isn't WindowsMe - I have used it in public
locations with wireless and it scans for networks just fine, but that's
because the software that came with my wireless adapter allows it. I'd
suspect the fault is in your wireless software package.

Thanks. I installed and configured the software that came with the
Actiontec PCMCIA wireless adapter that I'm using.

The software doesn't seem to have the capability to scan for available
wireless networks--you need to know the name of the network you want to
access an manually put in the necessary info.

I'm now wondering if the lack of scanning is somehow a limitation of ME
(i.e., there's no software out there that would allow scanning for
networks if its running on ME), or if there might be other software out
there with scanning capability that would work with an Actiontec pc card.

Your wireless network adapter should have come with instructions telling
you how to do all this. We can't tell you since the exact sequence of
steps and the tools you'd use will be different depending on which
wireless adapter you have.

I'm trying to set up a computer running ME to connect to the Web via
wifi.

How do I scan for available networks and where do I enter the network
key??

Is there anything along the lines of an online setup guide?

Thanks!
