Mike,

> Could not find were to change from g to b.

Assuming you have similar software in your router to mine, it is on  
the "Channel and SSID" page.  It is the "Wireless Mode" choice.  Of  
course they don't mention "b" but the auto setting will cover it.

   	Wireless Channel > 		11 Works well unless there is another  
network nearby on that channel.  This is the default for most devices.
   	SSID > 				
   	Wireless Mode > 		54g Auto
   	Broadcast SSID >		Checking this will _slightly_ decrease the  
security of you network but makes connecting new devices much  
easier.  Start with it checked.
							You can uncheck it later when you have everything working.  I  
leave mine checked.  Turning off broadcast will just slow someone
							down when looking for a network.  With the right software,  
this can be determined by eavesdropping long enough.
Cheers,

Scott
