- Is there anything like a 'Calibre Companion for Dummies' anywhere so I can understand what I'm doing?
- Is there any way to use a USB cable for the connection? That's what I do for my ereaders; I don't quite see the point of using Wi-Fi for the Nexus.

I'll probably have lots more dumb questions, so thanks in advance for your patience.
Did you start the Wireless Device Connection on Calibre? (assumes you are using the 'Connect Wireless' choice in CC)

Is your WiFi connection on the same network as the Calibre machine?
