I've got a really simple system set up at home, a laptop with a wireless internet card to allow for roaming with the computer at home and away.

I'm struggling to get an IDS connection. I've tried all the combinations I can think of with the iLiad set up. It doesn't see the laptop when I turn the wireless connectivity on, which I usually disable for security. I've turned on options to let other devices connect through the computer.

The only thing I can think of is that I've been using the USB cable instead of some other cable.

Can anbody offer any advice?

Many thanks
