Thanks for these suggestions.  I have left the hotel in which I
had this problem, so I cannot reproduce it.  I will remember these
lessons for next time.

However.

I am back home, with the same WinXP FC8 dual boot, and now the wifi
doesn't work at all.  I'll give the data in a new thread.

Thanks,
Mike.
